Ingredients:
- 6 tomatillos
- 1 jalapeño (optional, for extra spice)
- 2 ripe avocados
- A small handful of fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup Mexican crema
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder
- 1 tablespoon salt (or to taste)
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1/4 white onion
Instructions:
- Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse under warm water to remove their sticky coating.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the tomatillos for 5–7 minutes, until they turn a pale green. Drain and let them cool slightly.
- In a blender, combine the tomatillos, jalapeño, avocados, cilantro, crema, garlic, bouillon powder, salt, lime juice, and onion.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
