Re: uses of tomatillos


I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond to this query. I hope you still
have some tomatillos lying around. Here's a great recipe for enchiladas
verde (i tend to use flour tortillas rather than corn because they're easier
to find)


1 lb tomatillos, quartered
1.25 cups chicken stock
a few jalapenos/habaneros/serranos to taste
salt
rough chopped garlic (optional)

combine and boil, then simmer for 15 min. until soft. Once soft, put them in
a blender, then reheat the green sauce until it's slightly reduced (5 min).

2. mix together in a large bowl:

shredded whole roasted chicken
a dollop of sour cream
1/3 cup chicken stock
chop 1/3 cup onions
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
some black pepper
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 cup shredded asiago cheese
juice from 1/2 lime

this will form a filling for the tortillas.

fill the tortillas. lightly cover the bottom of a baking pam with the green
sauce, put the tortillas on top, then pour the rest of the sauce over them.
put in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. for 10-15 minutes. Yum.
