Time 20m

Yield 1 1/2 cups, serving six

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 pound fresh tomatillos, husked
1 jalapeño or 2 to 3 serrano chilies, seeded if desired and roughly chopped
10 cilantro sprigs, plus additional leaves for garnish
Salt to taste
2 small or 1 1/2 large ripe avocados
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place the tomatillos on top, stem side down. Place under the broiler at the highest rack setting and broil two to five minutes, until charred on one side. Turn over and broil on the other side for two to five minutes, until charred on the other side. Remove from the heat and transfer to a blender, tipping in any juice that has accumulated on the baking sheet. Add the chilies, cilantro sprigs and salt to the blender and blend to a coarse purée.
  • Cut the avocados in half and twist the two halves apart. Scoop out the flesh into a bowl or the bowl of a mortar and pestle. Mash with a fork or pestle. Do not use a food processor or a blender, as you want to retain some texture. Stir in the lime juice, the tomatillo mixture and salt to taste and combine well. Transfer to a bowl and serve with baked or microwaved tortilla chips or crudités, or use for tacos or avocado sandwiches.

Store-bought tomatillo salsa provides a shortcut to spicy and flavorful guacamole, while fresh lime juice brightens up the dip in a flash.

Provided by Rhoda Boone

Categories     3-Ingredient Recipes     Dip     Condiment     Condiment/Spread     Avocado     Appetizer     Tomatillo     Lime Juice

Yield Makes about 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 avocados, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup mild or medium heat tomatillo salsa
1 tablespoon (or more) fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon (or more) kosher salt

Steps:

  • Mash avocado, salsa, lime juice, and salt with a fork in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatillos: Look for tomatillos that are firm and have a bright green color. Avoid tomatillos that are bruised or have brown spots.
  • Roast the tomatillos: Roasting the tomatillos brings out their sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on the grill.
  • Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the guacamole. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but it will not have the same flavor.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy guacamole, add a chopped jalapeño pepper or two. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Serve immediately: Guacamole is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

This tomatillo guacamole is a quick and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with fresh, healthy ingredients and has a delicious, tangy flavor. Serve it with tortilla chips, vegetables, or your favorite Mexican dish.
