pineapple salsa

the relatively simple salsa that I made up to go with the spiced BBQed pork was as follows.

flesh from 1/3 coconut, shredded in food processor, toasted in oven at 180 degrees, finished toasting in dry frypan

1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted, roughly chopped (leave the bits chunky, not fine)

1/2 fresh pineapple, chopped and sauted briefly on high heat, cooled

1/2 red capsicum and 1/2 green capsicum, chopped into chunky pieces

1/2 long red chilli (medium heat), chopped finely

juice of 1 lime (or 1/2 if larger lime)

handful of chopped coriander

pinch of sea salt

mix together. it worked great and would be even better in summer!

What is it with all the fruit? I'm sure the pork just wanted to be cooked in a nice, savoury way, not cross-dressed as a dessert. :-)

so much fruit, so little time... born in Queensland. what can I say?

And you have a hat like Carmen Miranda? :-)

Anyway, back to the leeks and potatoes. No fruit going into this soup.
