Salsa verde in molcajete
Ingredients
1/2 onion
1 clove of garlic
4 serrano chiles or 3 fresh chiles de árbol
2 tomatillos
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 tsp grain salt
Preparation
Heat a wide skillet or comal and place the onion, garlic, tomatoes, and chiles. Roast until they take on a blackish color. Remember to stir constantly so that they roast evenly. Once the vegetables are ready, remove them from the griddle and cut them into cubes. Remember to remove the navels and center of the tomatillos.
Add to the molcajete the firmer vegetables such as garlic and chiles. Grind them with the stone. Once they are ready, continue with the onion, tomatillos, and cilantro. Add sea salt to taste and continue grinding until you get the texture of your preference. Season to taste and enjoy.
