Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Tomatillos
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 small Jalapeño
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cup White onion
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse them thoroughly to remove any sticky residue. Cut each tomatillo in half.
Lightly cook the tomatillos in a dry skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until they start to soften and develop some golden spots. Let them cool slightly.
Peel, pit, and scoop the flesh out of the avocado. Set it aside.
Remove the stem from the jalapeño and chop it into smaller pieces. For less heat, remove the seeds and membrane.
In a blender or food processor, combine the cooked tomatillos, avocado, chopped jalapeño, garlic clove, fresh cilantro, white onion, lime juice, salt, and water.
Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with a little more water if you prefer a thinner salsa.
Taste and adjust salt or lime juice as needed to suit your preference.
Transfer the salsa to a bowl or jar and chill in the refrigerator before serving. Serve with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables.
