Ingredients

1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp sea salt flakes
4 tbsp lime juice
4 large vine tomatoes
3 fresh jalapeño chillies
a small bunch coriander, chopped
plain tortilla chips, to serve

Method

STEP 1
Put the onion, sugar, salt and lime juice in a bowl and toss together. Heat a griddle pan or BBQ to hot. Grill the tomatoes, turning until charred then drop into a bowl and cover. Do the same with the chillies.
STEP 2
Remove as much of the skin as possible from the tomatoes and chillies and discard (don’t worry if there’s a little left on). Roughly chop the tomatoes and finely chop the chillies, discarding the stems. Add both to the onion bowl, toss and leave for at least 30 minutes for all the flavours to meld. Serve with tortilla chips for scooping.
