Salsa verde
Ingredients:
• 4 pounds tomatillos
• 1/2 medium white onion, roughly chopped
• 6 serrano peppers, roughly chopped
• 1 cup cilantro leaves
• 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 ounces Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoon chicken bouillon
• 1 ounces corn oil
Directions:
Remove the husks on the tomatillos. Boil tomatillos, onion and serrano peppers until the tomatillos change color. Drain the water.
Put the mixture in a blender or food processor with the rest of the ingredients, except the corn oil, and blend well.
Pour into a sauce pan on high heat, mix in the corn oil and bring to a light boil. Remove foam and serve warm with room temperature butter or cream cheese and tortilla chips.
