15 or 16 Jalapenos
1.3 lbs tomatillos
1 medium sized white onion
6 cloves of garlic
3/4 cup fresh cilantro
1 and 1/2 lime
Kosher salt
Brush the jalapenos and the husked tomatillos with a little oil and
place them on a preheated grill. Give them a good grilling and
make sure you get some charring. 4-7 minutes is probably enough.
The tomatillos will get really soft. Take them off the
grill and put them in a bowl. Cover your hands with a pair of
latex gloves and, after they have cooled, peal the skin from the
jalapenos and any of the really charred parts off of the tomatillos.
Slice the jalapeno tops off and cut them in half. Take out
most of the seeds and discard. Dice up your onion, peel
your garlic, and select your fresh cilantro leaves. Add it all to
a
food processor and put in a dash of kosher salt. Blend/pulse.
Eat right away or save for a few days. If you keep
it for a few days, the flavors will intermingle. Depending
on the jalapenos and the number of seeds you include, this can be very
hot. |
The Jalapenos and Tomatillos on the grill. Medium/High heat. |
Don't be afraid to char them a little.
You'll pull most of the charred skin off after they cook.
This is about half way done cooking. |

After you pull them off the grill put them
in a bowl. The skins will start to shrivel. Use a pair of
latex gloves to peel away the skin off of the Jalepenos. I
did not pull any of the skin from the Tomatillos. |

All of the ingredients in a bowl.
There was a lot of juice that had accumulated from the
Tomatillos. Leave it all in. Oh, and don't forget to
squeeze the lime juice in too. |

Into the food processor. |
After a good time in the food processor you're done. |
