First, ignore the recipe. It is merely a concatenation of codified errors. Also there was no canned cream of mushroom soup readily available in India before the 20th century so it's hardly 'traditional'.
Second, put the saucepan down.
Third, ring up the curry place around the corner. Wait twenty minutes and serve.
1/2 onion 3 2 1 serrano pepper 28 oz. can of tomatoes (Note to self: Tomato paste =/= diced tomatoes) 1 bunch of cilantro what the hell is cilantro? --ah, coriander, why didn't they just put that? 1/2 green bell pepper
1. Dice the onion. 2. Dice the bell pepper. 3. Dice the serrano. 4. Remember not to touch eyes after touching the serrano pepper. 5. Oh, god, it burns! 6. Never mind, have John dice the serrano from now on. 7. Pour out the juice from the can of tomatoes. 8. Pour it into a bowl, never mind. 9. Send John to Mrs Hudson for new can of tomatoes 10. Try again. 11. Pour tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and serrano into a food processor. 12. Do we own a food processor? 13. Send John to buy food processor. 14. Blend it, then pour it into bowl with tomato juice. 15. Add coriander leaves, salt, and pepper to taste. 16. Serve to unsuspecting flatmate.
I love this salsa, but I usually use 3-4 Serrano peppers, which is a bit.... excessive to many. If your nose isn't running and your eyes aren't watering, it doesn't count as salsa

*rofl* Fantastic! That food processor is going to have a very interesting life at 221B!
I'd love to try your salsa too, the hotter the better. I eat jalapenos as though they were chips. :D Do you leave the seeds in the serrano peppers or take them out before dicing?

Thank you! Couldn't resist. It was either that or my homemade Irish cream...
(Dear goodness, can you imagine? "Sherlock!" "Yes, John?" "What did I say about the food processor?" "... no more sheep's brains in it?" "Exactly. And especially no sheep's brains WITHOUT THE LID ON. We'll never get that off the ceiling. Mrs Hudson's going to kill us.")

Oh, also, if you give it a go, I forgot to add that you throw in some cloves of garlic. Usually about 3/4 depending on your taste. It's a pretty forgiving recipe.
1. Check recipe for ingredients 2. Hunt for any information about how many eggs are being used 3. Curse the lazy student who posted this recipe online without proper instructions 4. Decide that an entire box is probably enough 5. Melt some butter in a frying pan while breaking eggs 6. Drop entire eggshell into mixing bowl 7. Spend four minutes fishing out eggshell bits 8. Add herbs and garlic, praising the glory of pre-pasted garlic 9. Extinguish frying pan fire 10. Pour mixture onto frying pan 11. Cook like an omelette 12. Get fed up of omelette cooking time and scramble the eggs instead 13. Note how very similar in colour and texture it is to the experiment involving liquefied brain matter 14. Mention this whilst serving to flatmate 15. Explain that it isn't your fault he was sick, and thus it should not be your job to clean it up 16 Enjoy!

afjkdslafj My brother's roommate is from Wisconsin, so I toned it down to 2 serrano peppers... He still thought it was too spicy. :||
