Ingredients

1 pound tomatillos husked and rinsed
1 garlic clove unpeeled
½ white onion quartered
2 to 3 chiles de árbol stemmed and lightly toasted
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves and upper stems
1 or 2 large avocados halved, pitted, meat scooped out
Juice of half a lime
1 teaspoon kosher salt more to taste

To Prepare

On a small baking sheet, place the tomatillos, unpeeled garlic clove and onion. Place under the broiler for about 10 minutes, until the ingredients are charred and mushy, flip once in between. Keep an eye on the garlic, which may be ready before the other ingredients. Alternatively, you can toast the ingredients on a preheated comal or skillet over medium heat, but they may take more time and you may need to flip them more frequently.
Peel the garlic clove and place it in the blender with the roasted tomatillos, onion, toasted chiles de árbol, cilantro, avocado, lime juice, and salt, and puree until completely smooth. Pour into a bowl and serve.
