Homemade salsa verde made by me, as I do occasionally, as taught to me by a Mexican grandpa. This batch was borderline not spicy whatsoever because I had an extra bell pepper I needed to use up.
Recipe:
4 tomatillos
1 onion
2 jalapenos
1 green bell pepper (use cerrano if you want spicy)
1/2 lime juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh epazote
1 tbsp coconut oil
- Unsheath and rinse the tomatillos
- Peel and cut the onion in half
- Take the seeds out of the bell pepper
- Cut off the jalapeno stems
- Boil them for about 20 minutes until the tomatillos turn yellowish
- Put the lime juice and epazote in the blender, then blend it up with the boiled vegetables, adding a bit of water if needed
- Heat up the coconut oil in a frying pan
- Pour the salsa into the pan and simmer it for 20 minutes
- Add salt until it tastes just about too salty
- Pour it into a jar
