Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) tomatillos, husked and rinsed
  • 2 (2 oz / 55g) jalapeños, stemmed
  • ½ medium (75g) white onion, cut into thick wedges
  • 3 cloves (9g) garlic, peeled
  • ½ cup (15g) fresh cilantro, loosely packed
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp (6g) kosher salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven broiler to high.
  2. Arrange the husked tomatillos, jalapeños, onion wedges, and garlic cloves on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  3. Place the sheet under the broiler for 5–8 minutes until the vegetables have developed charred, blackened blisters and have softened.
  4. Carefully flip the vegetables and broil for another 3–5 minutes until the tomatillos are fragrant and slightly collapsed.
  5. Transfer the roasted vegetables and any juices from the pan into a blender or food processor.
  6. Add the fresh cilantro and lime juice.
  7. Pulse the mixture in short bursts until the ingredients are finely chopped but still maintain a slight texture.
  8. Add the salt and pulse one final time to incorporate.
