Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • ¾ pound tomatillos, husked, washed and cut in half
  • 1 small garlic clove, peeled
  • ¼ small onion, cut into wedges
  • 1-2 serrano peppers
  • 3 strips of poblano pepper
  • ½ cup lightly packed cilantro, finely chopped (reserve 2 tablespoons)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon sugar
  • fresh lime juice
Preparation
  1. On a foil lined broiler pan, lay tomatillos cut side down, along with the garlic, onion and peppers. Broil for 10-15 minutes or until nicely charred (remove garlic clove earlier to avoid burning). Let cool for 5-10 minutes.
  2. Carefully lift foil and pour ingredients into immersion cup or food processor (including juices from tomatillos). Add cilantro, salt, sugar and a few squeezes of fresh lime juice. Blend or pulse just until ingredients are thoroughly combined and have a thick consistency. Remove to a serving bowl. Adjust seasoning with extra salt and lime juice. Stir in reserved 2 tablespoons of finely chopped cilantro.
