Ingredients
  

  • 3 Large tomatillos
  • 1 Large jalapeno pepper
  • 1/4 Large white onion
  • 1-2 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 clove garlicĀ 
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 15 stems of cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 small green bell pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the ingredients by washing the Tomatillos and Jalapenos thoroughly.
  • Cut the Jalapeno in half, de-seed and de-vein it, and then boil it in a pan for approximately 7 minutes until it is soft. Remove the Jalapeno and place it on a baking sheet.
  • Place the Tomatillos, Garlic with Peel On, Onion with skin on, and Bellpepper on the same baking sheet next to the Jalapeno.
  • Turn the oven on broil and place the baking sheet on the middle rack. Cook all the ingredients until they have a nice char, turning the tomatillos over to char on all sides. The tomatillos are done when they are starting to lighten and turn a slight yellow color. Remove each ingredient as it gets done roasting, making sure not to burn the garlic.
  • In a small bowl, smash the garlic to a paste, then add it to the blender with the rest of the roasted items. Peel the skins off the tomatillos when they are finished charring, then add them to the blender.
  • Pulse the mixture in the blender until it is thick like a salsa. Add salt, cumin, to taste, and cilantro, then the vinegar, and pulse a few more times. Note that if you prefer a Green Taco Sauce, you can strain the seeds from the tomatillos and omit cilantro.
