Avocado And Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place tomatillos in pan and toast until charred on 1 side, about 10 minutes for a medium or large tomatillo. The color in the middle should be fading from pale green to olive. Turn tomatillos over and continue to grill until charred on the other side, about 10 minutes, but not for so long that they burst. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool.
• Place chile(s), garlic clove and onion slice in skillet and toast, turning often, until chile is lightly charred and garlic is charred in spots and softened. The onion should be lightly colored on both sides but not charred black (that will make it bitter). Remove from heat. Peel the garlic and transfer, with the onion and chiles, to a blender. Add tomatillos and any liquid that may have accumulated in the bowl.
• Add remaining ingredients to blender and blend until smooth. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve.

Steps:

• Place tomatillos into a food processor. Add serrano pepper, avocado, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt to taste. Process until smooth; adjust seasoning. Transfer to a serving bowl.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Place tomatillos, chiles (both types), onion, and garlic on the parchment and drizzle on olive oil. Add salt to taste and toss together with your hands. Place in oven and roast 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until blistered and softened. Remove from heat.
• Place roasted vegetables, with any juice from the pan, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse until well blended but not puréed. Add cilantro, cumin, avocado and lime juice and pulse until blended. Taste and adjust salt. Serve at once or store in a well-sealed container in the refrigerator. Stir well before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Remove husks and rinse tomatillos under warm water to remove stickiness. Halve onion half and arrange on rack of a broiler pan with tomatillos and garlic. Broil vegetables 1 to 2 inches from heat, turning them once, until softened and slightly charred, about 10 minutes.
• Peel garlic and put in a food processor with tomatillos, onion, cilantro, and salt. Wearing rubber gloves, discard seeds from jalapeño if desired and coarsely chop. Add jalapeño to tomatillo mixture and puree until mixture is almost smooth. Transfer tomatillo mixture to a bowl.
• Halve and pit avocado and scoop flesh into tomatillo mixture. With a fork mash avocado into mixture, leaving texture coarse.

Steps:

• Place tomatillos and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain, reserving liquid.
• Place tomatillo, avicado flesh, jalapeno, green onions, cilantro, sour cream and salt in a blender or food processor.
• Process until smooth. Thin with reserved cooking liquid if necessary, should be pancake batter consistency, refrigerate.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the tomatillos, garlic, jalapeño and leek with the oil and spread in a single layer. Roast the vegetables until lightly charred and softened, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a blender and let cool. Add the avocados, cilantro, sugar, cumin and 1/2 cup of water to the blender and puree until smooth. Add the onion, oregano and lime juice and pulse once or twice until incorporated. Transfer the salsa to a bowl and season with salt. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, cook the tomatillos in water to cover until they turn pale green and are slightly soft, 5-6 minutes.
• Drain and put them in a food processor.
• Cut the avocado in half; remove seed; peel and add to the processor along with the remaining ingredients.
• Process until smooth.
• Adjust seasoning to taste; serve within 4 hours for best color.

Steps:

• Purée tomatillos and jalapeño with salt in a blender until smooth, then transfer to a bowl.
• Quarter, pit, and peel avocados and cut into 1/4-inch dice. Add to tomatillo purée and stir in onion.
