Ingredients
  

  • 4 Medium Tomatoes
  • 2 Red Bell Peppers
  • 2  Large Jalapeno Peppers
  • 2 Small Sweet Onions, 
  • 1 tbsp Caraway Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Coriander Seeds
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, finely minced
  • ¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp  Vinegar
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the grill and char the outsides of the tomato, peppers, and onions until they’re completely blackened and blistered, turning frequently to char all sides. Pay particular attention to charring the onions black. Place the vegetables in a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap to allow them to steam in their own heat for 15 minutes.
  • Peel the char off of the vegetables, coarsely chop them and place them in a bowl.
  • Toast the caraway and coriander seeds in a dry skillet for a few minutes until they become fragrant. Grind them into a powder in a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle. Add the spices with the olive oil and vinegar to the chopped vegetables and stir well. Salt and pepper to taste
  • Serve in shallow plates garnished as you wish.
  • Optional Garnishes:
    Fresh Parsley or Cilantro
    One Hard Boiled Egg, peeled and cut into to quarters
    A few ounces of cooked tuna
    A small handful of olives
