Instructions

• Cook the Tomatillos:
• Place the husked and rinsed tomatillos in a saucepan and cover with water.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they soften and turn a dull green.
• Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
• Blend the Ingredients:
• In a blender or food processor, combine the cooked tomatillos, ripe avocado, chopped onion, garlic clove, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and 1–2 serrano or jalapeño peppers (depending on your heat preference).
• Blend until the salsa is smooth and creamy.
• Adjust Seasoning and Consistency:
• Taste the salsa and season with salt to your liking.
• If it’s too thick, add a splash of water and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
• Serve and Enjoy:
• Serve chilled or at room temperature as a dip with tortilla chips, a topping for tacos, or an accompaniment to grilled meats and vegetables.
