make it
Start with chopping up 2 medium sized fresh tomatoes. Prepare the chilies. Be very careful while handling these hot peppers. If you can, avoid touching them with your hands. Use a fork to cut the chilies over a small plate, or use a paper towel to protect your hands. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water after handling and avoid touching your eyes for several hours. Set aside some of the seeds from the chilies.
Combine all the ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Taste. If too hot add more diced tomatoes. If not hot enough add pepper seeds.
Let sit for an hour for the flavors to combine.
