Cinco de Mayo: Dish re-post 4

This is a great recipe for parties and it is great to use instead of your typical tomato-based salsas. Tomatillos look like a green tomato but their smaller, less acidic, and come in a leafy husk. Roasting or boiling is necessary when using this fruit/vegetable. Serve with my Homemade Tortilla Chips or some other plain tortilla chip.
