    Quickly becoming my favorite salsa. It’s got quite a kick to it, but the nuts and tomatillos help keep the heat in check.

    Ingredients

    – 20-30 Chiles de Arbol
    – 1/4 White Onion (Diced)
    – 5-6 Garlic Cloves
    – 15-25 Raw Peanuts
    – 4 Tomatillos
    – Salt
    – Water
    – Canola Oil

    Instructions

    – Gently boil the tomatillos for 3-4 minutes each side. Set aside and reserve a bit of the water.
    – Heat oil in pan to medium/low heat, then toast arbol chilis and peanuts for 3-4 minutes.
    – Remove chilies and peanuts, then add onion and garlic. Saute 5 minutes until golden.
    – Remove from heat, and let cool slightly.
    – Add Oil, Onion, Garlic, Chilis, Peanuts, and reserved tomatillo water to blender and blend on high until smooth.
    – Add tomatillos and 1tsp salt, then pulse until you reach desired consistency.
    – Remove from blender and add more salt if needed.
