Total Time: 21 mins Preparation Time: 6 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 1
• 4 whole tomatillos
• 1 whole chili pepper (i like jalapeno)
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove
• 4 cups cilantro

Recipe

• 1 peel the skin off the tomatillos and they should feel sticky, wash until it doesn't feel sticky and does not have anymore dirt on it; cut in half or quarter.
• 2 trim the stem of the pepper and cut in half.
• 3 cut all of the stems off the cilantro and wash so there are *no* bad leaves on them.
• 4 peel and score the clove of garlic.
• 5 put the tomatillo, garlic and pepper halves in a pot of water (doesn't matter how big, just make sire they have some room).
• 6 let the water boil for about five minutes in medium-high water, and wait till the tomatillos color turns a bit yellowish.
• 7 once boiled, move the tomatillos, garlic and peppers into a food processor with about 1/2 of a cup of the hot-water (you can eye-ball it) and mix with the lemon juice and cilantro.
