Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Tomatillos

Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse them under cold water to remove any stickiness.

2

Chop the Vegetables

Finely chop the onion and cilantro. Remove the stem from the jalapeño and chop it, keeping the seeds if you want more heat.

3

Peel the Garlic

Peel the garlic cloves and set them aside.

Cooking

4

Roast the Tomatillos and Jalapeño

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the tomatillos and jalapeño on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for about 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatillos are soft and slightly charred.

5

Blend the Sauce

Once the tomatillos and jalapeño have cooled slightly, place them in a blender along with the garlic, chopped onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.
