Source: Mexican Family Cooking
1 lb tomatillos
2 small green chiles
1/4 cup green onions, chopped
1 cup fresh cilantro
Salt
1 tsp sugar
1 clove garlic, peeled (optional)
Remove dry paper-like skins from tomatillos
Coarsely puree uncooked tomatillos, chiles, green onions, cilantro leaves, & garlic in blender
Season with salt to taste & add 1 tsp sugar
Serve with soft tacos or burritos & as a dip for corn chips
Also wonderful with fried chicken, pan fried pork chops, & pan fried potatoes
Note : This sauce is also great with grilled tortillas filled with slices of Jack cheese, a few strips of green chiles, & a few epazote leaves (about 2 per serving)
Heat griddle or skillet
Put the filling on one corn tortilla, top with a second tortilla, & press down on the “package” with something heavy while grilling on top of the stove
To serve, set the cheese-filled tortillas flat on the plate, smother with this sauce, & eat with a fork
A great substitute for grilled cheese s&wiches!
