Roasted Tomatillo salsa!

You can thank my local market for having a huge bag of tomatillos for a buck. Hello! How can you say no to that?! Now you say what the heck is a Tomatillo, some describe the taste being like a tart green tomato. I dunno, what I do know is they make a delicious salsa. It’s simple too, let’s begin, vámonos!

Ingredientes:

1/2 pound Tomatillos, husked, rinsed

2 Serrano peppers or 1 Jalapeño pepper, finely chopped (optional)

3-4 cloves of garlic, peeled
1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves

1 small to medium onion
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1-2 fresh lime juice

Instructiones:

Now for the roasting, turn your oven onto about 375. Place your cleaned tomatillos, garlic cloves and chili baking sheet or oven safe dish. Let them roasted, until they turn brown you will want to flip them over. This takes around 15-30 minutes depending on pre-heating, and your oven.
 

Once this is done, I recommend you use a blender as it will make the progress a lot easier. I’m all about easy, that’s my style. In the blender you will place the roasted tomatillos, garlic and chili. Turn it on and let her rip!

While everything is mingling in the blender, you will chop up some cilantro. Also, dice the onion if you don’t own a "chop-chop" I suggest you get one (See picture, it will save you from tears).

Now in a mixing bowl you will combo all your ingredinetes, add the lime juice and salt.

Boom! You just created a mouth water salsa, it keeps well in the frig. You can add the salsa to , quesadillas, tacos, sopas but spooning it with chips is always my favorite.

Hope you enjoy, till next time.
