Steps:
- Roughly chop half of the tomatillos and scoop them into a food processor with the cilantro and green chiles. Measure in 1/4 cup water and process to a slushy, coarse puree. Roughly chop half the avocado, add it to the processor and pulse until it is incorporated into the salsa. Scrape into a serving dish. Scoop the onion into a small strainer and rinse under cold water. Add to the salsa. Finely chop the remaining tomatillos and add them, too. Finally, chop the remaining avocado into 1/4-inch pieces and stir them into the salsa. Taste and season with salt, usually about 3/4 teaspoon. Alternative Method: Put all the tomatillos (quartered), cilantro and chiles through a meat grinder to chop them (no water necessary), then stir in finely chopped avocado and rinsed onion.
SALSA DE TOMATILLO CON AGUACATE
This salsa sounds amazing! From the Gormet Sleuth wesite. This versatile sauce is served with some classic Veracruzan antojitos (appetizers, snacks). The chunky-textured original was made with a Mexican stone mortar and pestle.

AVOCADO AND ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA
I have been making tomatillo and avocado salsa for years, but I usually simmer the tomatillos rather than roasting them. Roasting the tomatillos, chiles and garlic - toasting really, as I use a skillet for this, on top of the flame - produces a salsa with a delicious charred flavor. I learned something recently from the chef Iliana de la Vega, who demonstrated the recipe at the "Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives" conference in Napa Valley in March: she says, in no uncertain terms, that you should not add water to tomatillo salsas. Without the water, this is a more intense salsa with pleasing density.You can use it as a sauce to serve with chicken or fish, or as a dip with chips or other vegetables.

Steps:
- Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place tomatillos in pan and toast until charred on 1 side, about 10 minutes for a medium or large tomatillo. The color in the middle should be fading from pale green to olive. Turn tomatillos over and continue to grill until charred on the other side, about 10 minutes, but not for so long that they burst. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool.
- Place chile(s), garlic clove and onion slice in skillet and toast, turning often, until chile is lightly charred and garlic is charred in spots and softened. The onion should be lightly colored on both sides but not charred black (that will make it bitter). Remove from heat. Peel the garlic and transfer, with the onion and chiles, to a blender. Add tomatillos and any liquid that may have accumulated in the bowl.
- Add remaining ingredients to blender and blend until smooth. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve.

This spectacularly simple green sauce may be the perfect summer condiment. It requires no cooking, only takes 10 to 15 minutes to make, looks gorgeous, and tastes amazing with anything grilled and most things that aren't. Spoon over grilled pork tacos, grilled meats, or serve with chips.

Tips:
- Choose ripe tomatillos: Look for tomatillos that are firm, green, and have little to no blemishes. Avoid tomatillos that are soft, yellow, or have any signs of bruising.
- Roast the tomatillos: Roasting the tomatillos brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on a grill.
- Use a variety of chilies: This recipe calls for serrano and jalapeño peppers, but you can use any type of chili pepper that you like. Just be sure to adjust the amount of peppers you use depending on how spicy you want the salsa to be.
- Don't over-blend the salsa: You want the salsa to have a chunky texture, so don't over-blend it. Just pulse it a few times until the ingredients are combined.
- Serve the salsa immediately: This salsa is best served fresh. It will keep in the refrigerator for a few days, but the flavors will be best if you eat it right away.
Conclusion:
This crunchy tomatillo-avocado salsa is a delicious and refreshing way to add flavor to your favorite dishes. It's perfect for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or simply as a dip with chips. With its combination of roasted tomatillos, creamy avocado, and spicy chilies, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
