Salsa Fresca de Tomatillo con Aguacate ( Fresh Tomatillo Salsa with Avocado)

This Salsa is blended fresh, no cooking is involved. The avocado blended with all the ingredients, gives it a delightfully creamy texture. The freshness of it makes it best for seafood but also great on anything else.


Makes about 4-5 cups

Ingredients

1 lb of tomatillos, husk removed
4-6 serrano peppers (I used 6, had a good kick to it)
1 bunch fresh cilantro
1 avocado
1 small yellow onion
Juice of 1 lime
2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 cup water


In a bender, put all your ingredients minus 1/2 of the avocado, half the onion and about 1 tbsp of the cilantro and set those aside. Pulse the ingredients until somewhat smooth and transfer to a large bowl. Dice the other half of the avocado, mince the cilantro and half of the rest of the onion, then mix into the blended salsa along with water. Taste for salt and serve with tortilla chips, use as a salsa topping on any protein or add to your favorite tacos or antojitos (Mexican snacks/bites).

Enjoy!
