Roasted Tomatillo Salad

Ingredients

  • 7-8 to matillos husked and rinsed
  • 1 onion
  • 2 jalapenos
  • 8 cloves of garlic a couple small bulbs or one large**
  • Small bunch of cilantro
  • Juice of a lime
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon tajin

Instructions

  • Either place the items on a the bbq (I cut the onions into 3 ring slabs) and char slightly or line a cookie sheet with tinfoil, place the tomatillos, onion, garlic and jalapeno's on it, set under broiler until the jalapenos blacken. Take pan out, flip everything over. Set back under broiler until the jalapeno's darken.
  • Remove from bbq or the broiler and scrape most of the skin of the jalapenos off and deseed them. Dump the peppers, tomatillos, onion and garlic into a food processor.
  • Add the cilantro, salt to taste, cumin, lime juice, tajin and blend.

Notes

** If you don't have any whole bulbs of garlic, just the prepeeled cloves, place on a piece of tinfoil, drizzle with olive oil, and make a packet out of it. Throw that on at the same time as the rest of the items.
