From Rick Bayless, 'Authentic Mexican.' There's nothing like a good, fresh tomatillo sauce! Great on grilled chicken! If you want a really hot salsa, don't seed the jalapenos!
Ingredients:
6 tomatillos, husked and rinsed or 1 (13 ounce) can tomatillos
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
6 sprigs cilantro, chopped
1/2 small white onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
Directions:
1. If using fresh tomatillos, boil in salted water to cover until JUST tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain. For canned ones, just drain them.
2. Place the tomatillos, cilantro, and onion in a blender or processor. Blend until coarsely pureed.
3. Put in a bowl, and add 1/4 cup water or until it has reached a sauce-like consistency. Add salt, and let stand 30 minutes before using.
