Simple Salsa Verde

Broil, then puree tomatillos and aromatics for a simple salsa verde.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • Tomatillos
  • Jalapenos split and seeded
  • garlic optional
  • onion optional

Instructions
 

  • Take however many tomatillos you have or want to use. Cut them in half, and put the cut side down on a baking pan.
  • Then add aromatics, again, in the amounts you want. (A good place to begin is about one quarter the amount of jalapeno in bulk as you have tomatillo - but vary by taste.) Add onion and garlic if desired. Again, cut them in two (seeding the jalapenos) and put them cut side down on the pan.
  • Broil for 7-10 minutes, until softened and starting to bubble and char just slightly. Let cool.
  • Scrape everything from the pan, including the liquid from the tomatillos, into a food processor. Puree.
