Summer is definitely my time! Sitting or being outside, relaxing or with a good book on the balcony.
To begin the great pleasely eveving, I already prepared a big bootle of BBQ-Salsa. This sauce keeps - stored well in the refrigerator - for a long time. Last year when I made it, it kept for really long - well this depends naturally very much on how often you grill or with whatever you enjoy this spicy Sauce.
If you got children at the table, you may reduce the spicy or make an extra little bottle - as it is kind of spicy - not too much - but enough....
Spicy BBQ-Sauce
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, diced
3-4 garlic cloves minced
24-ounce jar of strained (or crushed) tomatoes (or a 28-ounce can)
7-ounce jar of tomato paste (or a 6-ounce can)
2 tablespoon Srirache
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup whole grain mustard
1/4 cup agave nectar
Preparation:
Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion sauté for about 5 minutes, until the onion is slightly tender, add the garlic and saute for another minute or two.
Add in the remaining ingredients and stir well to combine, reduce the heat to a medium-low and allow to simmer for 30 - 40 minutes, stirring often.
Taste the sauce
Remove from the heat, allow to cool for a few minutes, then puree until smooth in the food processor or blender.
note: if you don’t like spicy, you can skip the sriracha, add less or use just a pinch of two of red pepper flakes instead.
