Tomatillo-serrano salsa

Yield: 1 Servings

Measure Ingredient
15 \N Tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and roughly chopped
3 \N Serrano chiles, with seeds, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon Sugar
½ cup Cilantro, fresh leaves, chopped
1¾ teaspoon Salt
1 cup Water
2 tablespoons Lime juice, fresh
1 \N Avocado, (ripe) peeled, pitted, and roughly chopped

Pulse the tomatillos, serranos, sugar, cilantro, salt, and ½ cup water in a blender until smooth. Add the lime juice, avocado, and the remaining ½ cup water and pulse again until the salsa is smooth and even-colored, but not pureed.

Serving suggestions: This classic salsa verde (green salsa) is an excellent all-purpose salsa. Serve it cold or at room temperature. Goes well with fish and seafood.

Storage: Can be stored in the refrigerator up to 2 days, but the longer it is held, the more it loses its bright green color.
