A quick green salsa recipe that she makes five times a week in her own home. You can use it to spice up any tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas, tostadas, and so on.
3 cups salsa
Ingredients
1 pound tomatillos husked and rinsed
1 chile de arbol or more to taste
1 clove garlic
1/4 cup cilantro leaves and upper part of stems
1 thin slice of white onion or about 2 tablespoons roughly chopped white onion
To Prepare
In a medium saucepan, place the tomatillos, chile de arbol and garlic clove. If you are unsure of how much heat you want, add 2 chiles de arbol. Cover generously with water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked and tomatillos are mushy, but not coming apart.
Transfer the tomatillos, garlic and 1 chile de arbol to a blender. Add the cilantro, onion and salt. Puree until smooth. Taste for salt and adjust if need be. If you want more heat, add the second chile de arbol.
