We came home from a weekend away with a stack of freshly made corn tortillas. What to do with them? Green salsa was what we came up with. Yum.
- 2–3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, roughly chopped
- 5–6 cloves garlic
- 2–4 Anaheim peppers, chopped
- 1–2 jalepenos, seeded
- 1 1/2 pounds tomatillos, husked and cut in half
- 1/2 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
- Place
all of the ingredients in the blender and process until smooth. (If the
jar of your blender doesn’t fit it all, add all of the ingredients
except for the chicken stock. Add only enough stock to allow the blender
to process everything until smooth. Add the rest of the stock to the
pan before cooking)
- Add the blended mixture to a large pot.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to
medium-low and simmer for about 30 minutes. If the sauce is thicker than
you like, add a little more chicken stock.
- Serve inside
burritos or pour it over enchiladas for a smothered styled meal. I also
use this as part of my liquid in tortilla soup and chili!
