Ingredients

    Tomatillos, 8 medium
    Jalapeno Peppers, 3 pepper
    Salt, 2 tsp
    Garlic, 1 clove
    Cilantro, raw, 1 tbsp
    *Cumin seed, 0.5 tsp
    *Crisco Pure Vegetable Oil, 1.5 tbsp

Directions

Take your tomatillo green toamtoes and peel them from their outside skin. This is the leafy covering around them. Wash them along with the Jalepenos and place in a pot of boiling water.
The totatoes will change from their green color to a brighter green color when they are finished. You will need to roll the tomatoes to get them cooked all the way around. Once the jalapenos and tomatoes are finished place all the tomatoes, jalepenos, your garlic clove, salt silantro ad either cumin seed or powder inot a blender and blend for two minutes untill smooth.
Take a frying pan with a lid, Very important your pot or pan has a lid!!! And add oil and diced onions. Fry the onions untill golden then add your salsa mixture. Fry your salsa for 25 minutes stirring every 5 minutes to prevent it from separating. Then allow to cool and add to any dish for a kick of spicy flavor! Your salsa will be good for about 7-10 days if kept refridgerated and covered. Old spagetti jars are great for storing it in.
