Time 15m

Yield About 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
1 small white onion, coarsely chopped
2 fresh serrano or jalapeño chilies, or to taste, stemmed, seeded and coarsely chopped
6 to 8 tomatillos (about 1/2 pound), husks removed, and quartered
1 ripe avocado
8 to 10 cilantro sprigs.

Steps:

  • In a food processor or with mortar and pestle, process or pound the garlic and salt to a paste. Add onion, chilies and tomatillos; pulse in processor, or pound to make a slightly chunky paste.
  • Scoop out the avocado flesh. For a smooth, machine-finished purée, add it and the cilantro to the processor, and process very fine. To do it by hand, finely chop the avocado, and mash it into the onion-tomatillo mixture; stir in cilantro leaves. (For a medium texture, pour the machine-processed onion-tomatillo mixture into a bowl, and mix in the chopped avocado and cilantro.)
  • Serve immediately as a dip or a sauce with chips or vegetables.

I love that this sauce is made with all-natural ingredients. It's so much healthier than the store-bought sauces, and it tastes just as good.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover avocados. I always have a few avocados on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

I'm not usually a fan of avocado, but this sauce is an exception. The avocado flavor is really subtle, and it just adds a creamy texture to the sauce.

This sauce was a hit at my last party! Everyone loved the creamy texture and the bright, tangy flavor. I served it with grilled shrimp and vegetables, and it was the perfect complement.
