  1. On an unoiled pan on the stovetop, grill all of the ingredients on both sides until blackened. The garlic will be done the quickest so remove first. This will take about 1-2 minutes and the rest will take about a total of 5 minutes.
  2. Remove from pan then add the garlic to your molcajete along with a good pinch of salt and begin to mash really well.
  3. Then, add the onion and peppers, break apart and mash well then add remaining ingredients and mash all together until you reach desired consistency.
