Ingredients:

Serving

2 large onions, sliced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 (10 oz) can tomatillos, drained and halved
3 tbsp butter (for frying )
10 flour tortillas , from the refrigerator case

Directions:

Melt butter in skillet.
Add onion slices and garlic.
Fry until limp and a little caramelized or transparent.
Add ground cumin.
Add tomatillos and fry on low for 5-10 minutes.
Add grated cheese.
Remove immediately as cheese is melted.
Serve in flour tortillas.
The tomatillos are like green tomatos - and the flavor is subtle and superb - they're hard to find so stock up when you do see them in a grocery.
