If you can’t find fresh figs, the salsa is just as good without them. Serve with Chicken-Fig Tagine.

2 onions, quartered
5 garlic cloves, peeled
Juice of 1 lemon
1 bunch cilantro, washed, stems included
1/2 to 1 jalapeño pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 orange, peeled, sectioned and diced
6 to 8 fresh figs, stems removed, cut into eighths




Instructions
1. Combine onions, garlic, lemon juice, cilantro, jalapeño, salt, cumin and oil in food processor and process, pausing to scrape sides, until a smooth paste is formed. Transfer to a bowl and stir in orange sections and figs.
