Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 lbtomatillos, husks removed and rinsed
  • 2serrano chilies, stemmed
  • 1/2white onion, cut into wedges
  • 3 clovesgarlic, unpeeled
  • 1 ozcilantro, stems and leaves
  • 1 tspsea salt
  • 1limes, juiced

Method

  1. 1

    Spread the tomatillos, chilies, onion wedges and unpeeled garlic on a sheet pan and broil on high for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until softened and blackened in patches.

  2. 2

    Let everything cool for a couple of minutes, then squeeze the garlic cloves out of their papery skins.

  3. 3

    Blend everything with the cilantro and salt in short pulses. Stop while it still has some texture — this should not be a smooth purée.

  4. 4

    Stir in the lime juice, taste, and add more salt if it needs it. It keeps in the fridge for five days and is better on the second.
