Salsa Verde / Green Salsa

I had this first at a local mexican restaurent when i went for a team lunch. Till then, i didn't even know such a thing existed :-) I like this better than the regular salsa.

When i searched in the internet for this i saw different recipes with different methods - cooked, uncooked, pureed, chopped and also with different list of ingredients. As usual, i picked the one with lesser number of ingredients and i did not want to go with the uncooked version. After all the salmonella scare, i dont feel comfortable to eat anything uncooked :) I didn't note down the recipe (lazy me!) and i didn't follow the recipe exactly, so ended up with a watery salsa. I sauteed the tomatillos instead of roasting or boiling and i think that's the reason why i ended up with a watery salsa.

Ingredients :

Tomatillos - 6
Onion - 2 (chopped)
Cilantro - 1 small bunch
lemon juice - 1 spoon or as required
Salt
Serrano peppers - 2 or more



Method :

Boil the tomatillos for 10 minutes. Let it cool. Chop them and pulse them in a processor along with the chopped onions, peppers and cilantro. Add salt and lemon juice (you can skip lemon juice if the tomatillos are very sour).
Tastes great with tortilla chips or the healthier, baked pita chips (seen in picture). Here is a picture of tomatillos, if you are not familiar with it.
