Mix as you chop by turning the salsa with the flat of your knife or cleaver. Mix in the salt.

Chopping the ingredients together is an excellent way to blend and to distribute the different tastes and flavors. Serve as a dipping sauce for bread or a side with grilled kebabs. The quantity of chiles used in the following recipe produces a salsa that is somewhat hot when eaten all by itself - adjust according to your own taste.
