Default Tomatillo - Avocado Salsa

Looked at all the recipes on the internet and slimmed them down to make this salsa:

1 ripe avocado, flesh only
1 pound or less of roast tomatillos
5 cloves of roast garlic
1 roasted jalapeno
1 loosely packed cup of chopped cilantro (fresh)
4T or so or purple onion
juice of 1 lime
squirt of walnut oil (or your preference)
salt

put all of this in a food processor and puree.


*** I roasted the tomatillos, garlic and jalapeno in the oven until roasted, blackened and soft.


no counts for this.

Thumbs up

Oh thank you never heard it called that. http://images.ephotozine.com/gallery/2012/26/tn_med/162081_1340644738.jpg .. Second lot is coming up
did you fry the tomatillos in olive oil to roast them?
Or did you roast them in the oven?

Jalapenos aren't ripe yet but got some bottled ones in oil from last year.
