Ingredients:

Serving

2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped ( seeding is optional)
2 bunches fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tbsp water (to help blend-add more if needed)
1 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp toasted sesame oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp sesame seeds (brown or white )

Directions:

Place all ingredients *except* for the sesame seeds in blender or food processor. Blend using the PULSE setting until the mixture is smooth and to the consistency of pesto (if you want a chunkier texture-go for it).
Place in container, cover and chill.
Best prepared several hours in advance. Serve at room temperature.
Before serving, stir the sesame seeds into the salsa.
Yield is usually a scant 2 cups.
