And everybody know, Strawberry, Strawberry is the neighbourhood ...

It's a Friday and the sun is shining. It's time to dust off that LA Kings hat, let your khakis hang low, turn up the Zapp and Roger and barbecue something. If you feel like grilling chicken or fish try using this strawberry salsa as a topping. Remember to strap on your locs and demand snaps on the petrol.



Strawberry Salsa

1/2 pound of strawberries
1 clove of garlic, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
about a teaspoon of grated ginger
a handful of cilantro
salt and pepper
olive oil
juice of 1 lime
zest of 1 lime

Start by washing and drying your strawberries and cilantro. Next, give the cilantro a rough chop and toss into a bowl. Dice the strawberries into little chunks and toss them into the bowl as well. Mix in the garlic, jalapeno, grated ginger and lime zest. Squeeze the lime juice into the bowl. Pour in a few glugs of olive oil. Turn the pepper grinder a few times over your concoction and add a pinch or two of salt. Make sure everything is mixed together well. Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge till you are ready to eat.
