Notes
Tomatillos. To prepare them, you need to remove the husk, wash them and pat them dry. Use 4 to 6 large tomatillos if they are on the smaller side.
Garlic cloves. Do not peel them until they are roasted; the skin protects them from burning.
Serrano chili peppers, if you want it less spicy, use jalapeños seeded. If you can't find fresh chiles, use Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.
Cilantro. Use fresh cilantro with bright green</a> leaves and sprigs.
