30+ Roma tomatoes
2 green peppers
3 med. onions
4 med. jalapeƱo peppers (leave some seeds in for heat)
4 cloves garlic
1 large bunch of cilantro

I food processor or blender, coarsely grind un-peeled tomatoes. Add peppers onions and garlic until ground together.

Add:
1/2 cup of vinegar
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar

Simmer mixture over low heat for 25 min. Half-way through the cooking, add:
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

Continue the cooking for the full 25 min.

Pour into jars and hot bath for 20-25 min.
