Chipotle tomatillo salsa 2

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Tomatillos, husks removed and washed
5 Chipotles (up to 6)
6 Garlic cloves (unpeeled) (up to 8)

Directions

from Rick Bayless' latest cookbook - hope Rick doesn't mind.

Place tomatillos on baking sheet and broil for 15-20 minutes till well charred. Toast chipotles and then reconstitute (regular method in warm H2O), or use the same number of canned chipotle en adobo, with sauce rinsed off (I substituted 2 Scotch bonnets and toasted 'em with the garlic cause that's what I had). Place garlic in dry skillet for about 10 minutes over medium heat to char.

Let tomatillos and garlic cool, peel garlic, put all of above in blender/processor and ZOOm together. Be sure to include the juice that comes outta the tomatillos.

Add salt and sugar to your liking - plus a few teaspoons of water to get the desired constistancy.

Pretty good green sauce!!!
