1 pound tomatillos, husks removed
1 jalapeno peppers
1 small onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1 lime, juice and zest
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, or 4 Tbsp dry cilantro per 1/2 cup fresh
salt to taste
Roast the tomatillos over open flame, in a heavy bottom pan over high heat or broil the tomatillos and jalapenos until slightly blackened or charred on all sides.
Place everything into a food processor and puree.
Option: Use more jalapenos for more heat and remove the seeds for less heat.
Option: Skip step one and do it raw!
Option: Add an avocado for creaminess and to balance the heat a bit!
