1 lb Tomatillos, husked and washed
8 each Garlic cloves, peeled
2 each Jalapeno chiles, stemmed and seeded if desired
1 large Bunch cilantro, leaves only
3/4 cup lime jiuce
1 teaspoon Salt
1 avocado
Preheat the broiler. Place the tomatillos, garlic and jalapenos on a baking tray and broil, turning frequently, until evenly charred, 15 minutes. (The trick to keeping the garlic from burning is to tuck it under the tomatoes.) Set aside to cool.
Transfer the roasted ingredients to a food processor fitted with the metal blade.
Add the cilantro, avocado and lime juice and puree until smooth.
Season with the salt and pepper and serve.
Makes 2-1/2 cups.
