Vibrant Tomatillo Salsa
Ingredients
  • 1 pound tomatillos, husked
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 serrano chile pepper, minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 cups water
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary ingredients for this recipe.
2
Combine tomatillos, an onion, a chile pepper, and garlic in a large saucepan; add cilantro, oregano, salt, and cumin to season the mixture. Add water and bring the contents to a boil over high heat; subsequently, lower the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the tomatillos become tender.
3
Transfer the blended mixture from the saucepan into a blender in batches; puree until you achieve a smooth consistency. If you prefer a thicker salsa verde, use a slotted spoon to transfer the blended mixture into a blender again; then, add some of the cooking water as needed to achieve your desired level of consistency.

Serve this delicious salsa verde accompaniment with tortilla chips.
