Tomatillo/Feta Salsa
- Salsa:
- 20 large (2"/5 cm) tomatillos (green or ripe)
- 1 large head garlic
- 4 green jalapeno peppers
- 1 lime (zest & juice)
- 4-5 fresh coriander/cilantro plants, finely chopped
- Cheese:
- sheep feta cheese in brine (1 cup crumbled cheese per 1 cup salsa)
- Rinse & drain all vegetables and herbs well. Split garlic into cloves but do not peel.
- Oven set to Broil-HIGH.
- Arrange tomatillos, peppers and garlic on a large baking sheet or other pan with a rim at least 1/2"/1.5 cm high, to hold liquid. Depending on the size of your sheet/pan, you may need to do several batches. Broil 5-7 minutes per side, turning only once. Don't worry if tomatillos blacken slightly.
- Let cool several minutes, Slip skins of garlic and peppers, and add pulp (including pepper seeds) to tomatillos in a good-sized bowl. Make sure to capture all of the liquid from the pan! Process cooked ingredients in small batches using a Cuisinart or blender until your bowl contains a uniformly chopped mixture. Add finely chopped coriander, zest and juice of the lime, and mix well. At this stage, you can freeze all or part of the mix, in individual 1 cup containers. The final salsa is quite runny, but if refrigerated will become firmer.
- When ready to serve, drain fresh feta cheese well, crumble and add to fresh or thawed salsa, 1:1. Serve with your favourite tortilla chips.
