Add more intense flavor to homemade guacamole with the addition of pan-roasted jalapeño peppers and roasted tomatillos. You can also do the roasting step on a grill. Ingredients:
1 or 2 fresh jalapeños, stems removed, and chiles halved and seeded |
1/2 medium white onion, peeled |
1 garlic clove, peeled |
1 tomatillo, papery skin removed |
1 avocado, peeled and cut into chunks |
at least 1 tablespoon lime juice |
1/3 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, chopped |
at least 1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a large, unoiled frying pan over medium heat, pan-roast the Jalapeños, onion, garlic, and tomatillo on all sides, 20 to 25 minutes total. 2. In a blender, whirl the vegetables with 1/4 cup water until blended but still chunky. Add avocado and lime juice; pulse until blended. Add cilantro and salt, pulse to combine, and add more salt and/or lime juice to taste. 3. Note: Nutritional analysis is per tablespoon. |
