Tomatillo Salsa Verde Recipe

makes 1 1/2-2 cups

If you like Southwestern Cooking - this green sauce is a must! Best if you can roast the tomatillos over charcoal.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 medium to large tomatillos
  • 1/2 of a white onion roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup loose packed cilantro leaves
  • juice of one lime
  • 1 small jalapeno seeded and roughly chopped
  • pinch of sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
OO Grilling or broiling, food processor.

METHOD:
  1. Preheat your broiler (or prepare and grill on charcoal, if you prefer). Remove papery husks and stems from the tomatillos and cut them in half. Line a baking pan with foil and place tomatillo halves cut side down in the pan.
  2. Broil tomatillos 6-8 minutes, until flesh is charred and they are very easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Place tomatillos, onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeno and sugar into a blend and puree about 10-20 seconds (until well mixed). Taste, add salt and pepper if desired and mix once more.
