  • 2 small jalapeños stemmed (remove seeds for less heat)
  • 1/2 cup white onion roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup cilantro leaves packed
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp lime juice about 1 lime
  • 2 tbsp water more if needed

  1. Roast tomatillos and jalapeños under broiler or on a hot skillet until charred and softened, about 6–8 minutes, turning once.

  3. Taste and adjust salt or lime. Chill 30 minutes for best flavor or use right away.
