directions

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Broil tomatillos in a flameproof shallow baking pan about 4 inches from heat until tops are charred, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn tomatillos over with tongs and broil until charred, about 5 minutes more.
  • Combine onion, chiles, cilantro, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add tomatillos 2 at a time, mashing with a fork or pestle to form a coarse paste.
  • Pit and peel avocados. Add avocados to mixture and continue mashing until incorporated but still chunky.

  1. I was looking for a zaar recipe that was close to a recipe I found on a web search couple years ago and this was very close for ingredients. I roasted 6 tomatillos and some small jalapenos. Everything went into a magic bullet - 2 cloves garlic plus extra of course, 1 white onion, 2 tbsp cilantro and 2 ripe avocadoes. The web recipe had similar instructions to grind with mortar & pestle but I love my bullet!!
