Salsa Roja
Salsa roja () is a type of spicy red sauce in Mexican cuisine. It is made of jitomate (red tomato), ground with onion, garlic, chilli, salt and pepper to taste. This red sauce comes in subtypes: ''salsa cocida'' ("cooked sauce"), in which the ingredients are cooked (e.g. by stewing) and then ground; ''salsa asada'' ("roasted sauce"), in which the elements are roasted on a comal and then ground; ''salsa cruda'' ("raw sauce"), in which ingredients are ground raw, ready to eat; and a combination in which some elements are roasted and other cooked.
