BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF HABANERO SALSA

                                       BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF SALSA

This is so Awesome, slightly sweet and sour with a volcanic kickin blow your head off lip curling habanero punch, the sweetness from the carrots and honey remind me of a South Carolina's vinegary BBQ sauce style.  Next time I think I will make this with the bhut Jolokia ghost chilli !

Prep time 5 mins / Cooking time 40 minutes

Blow Your Head Off Salsa
Heat the oil and gently soften the onion and carrots for around 10 minutes then add the garlic and cook for a further 5 minutes, add the whole habaneros and water and gently simmer for a further 30 minutes until the carrots are super soft, blitz to a smooth purée reduce down to the consistency of thick double cream, add the vinegar, salt, oregano and sugar, taste and if the salsa is sweet, hot and sharp it's done, pour into a jar and keep in the fridge for a couple of weeks.
