Ingredients

  • 7-8 tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and coarsely chopped
  • packed 1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 small or 1/2 large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
  • 2-4 fresh serrano or jalapeƱo chiles, coarsely chopped, including seeds, or more to taste, optional
  • juice of one lime, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine salt, or 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2-3 small ripe Mexican Hass avocados, halved, pitted, and scraped out of the their skin

Instructions

  1. This recipe could not be more simple. Dump ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Adjust for lime juice and salt. When you are tasting it for seasoning, I recommend tasting with a tortilla chip. This guacamole will stay a vibrant green longer than many from the acid fo the tomatillos, but it is still best the day it is made.
