Tasty Tomatillo Guacamole image

A flavorful guacamole that's easy to adjust to your heat or taste preferences. A little untraditional to make, but won't stay around long. Great with fresh tortilla chips or as a condiment on many Latin dishes.

Time 25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 fresh tomatillos, husks discarded and tomatillos rinsed
1 white onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded if desired
1 ½ cups water, or amount to cover
salt to taste
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, or to taste
3 ripe avocados, halved lengthwise and pitted

Steps:

  • Place tomatillos, onion, garlic, and jalapeno peppers into a saucepan over medium heat, and pour in enough water to cover. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until the tomatillos soften and change color from bright green to a yellow-green color, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • With a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the tomatillo mixture moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree until smooth, about 1 minute; mix in salt, cilantro, and lime juice. Blend again for a few seconds just to mix.
  • Scoop out the avocado flesh, and place into the blender; blend until well mixed. Adjust salt, cilantro, and lime juice before serving.

This guacamole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more spices.

I'm not a huge fan of guacamole, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The tomatillos gave it a nice tanginess that I really liked.

I thought the tomatillos made the guacamole a little too watery. I would probably omit them next time.

This recipe was a little too spicy for me, but I think that's because I used a serrano pepper instead of a jalapeño. Next time I'll use less pepper.

I was skeptical about adding tomatillos to my guacamole, but I'm so glad I did. They added a delicious tanginess to the dish.

I love that this recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. It lightens up the dish without sacrificing any flavor.
