Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 4 whole chile de arbol
  • oil
  • 6 whole tomatillos
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil. Add the halved tomatillos cut side down.
  • ¼ whole small white onion
  • 4 whole chiles serranos
  • 4 whole green chiles de arbol
  • 2 cloves garlic cloves
Add the onion, serranos, green chiles de arbol and garlic. Use fewer chiles for a milder salsa.
Fry about three minutes, then flip the tomatillos and give them two minutes more, moving the onion, garlic and chiles around.
Transfer everything to the blender cup. Turn off the skillet and lightly fry the dried chiles de arbol a couple of seconds without burning; add to the blender.
  • 1 whole avocado
  • 4 oz sour cream
  • cilantro
  • ½ tsp garlic salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ cup water
Add the avocado, sour cream, cilantro, garlic salt, black pepper, salt and water (or milk); blend until smooth.
Transfer to a bowl. To keep it from browning, put the avocado peel on it and seal with plastic wrap.
