This homemade salsa verde is quick, healthy, and full of bright, fresh taste — just like the ones you’d find in Mexican taquerías.

⭐ Why You’ll Love This Salsa Verde

  • Fresh & authentic – made with roasted tomatillos for real Mexican flavor.
  • Versatile – use it as a dip, sauce, or topping.
  • Ready in 15 minutes – perfect for quick meals.
  • Healthy – low in calories, vegan, and gluten-free.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 pound (450g) tomatillos, husked and rinsed
  • 1–2 jalapeño peppers (or serrano peppers for extra heat)
  • 1 small onion, quartered
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for richer texture)

🍳 Instructions

  1. Roast the vegetables:
    Preheat a skillet or grill pan. Roast tomatillos, jalapeños, onion, and garlic for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally until lightly charred and softened.
  2. Blend:
    Add all roasted ingredients to a blender. Add cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  3. Adjust flavor:
    Taste and adjust salt or lime juice as desired. For a thicker salsa, pulse instead of fully blending.
  4. Serve or store:
    Pour into a jar or bowl. Serve fresh, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.

🌮 Serving Suggestions

  • Drizzle over tacos, enchiladas, or grilled meats.
  • Use as a dip for tortilla chips or nachos.
  • Mix into avocado for a quick green guacamole twist.
  • Serve as a fresh topping for eggs or rice bowls.

❓ FAQs

Q: Can I make this salsa without roasting?
Yes — just blend all ingredients raw for a fresh, tangier flavor (known as Salsa Verde Cruda).

Q: How long does it last?
Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for 1 month.

Q: Can I make it less spicy?
Absolutely! Remove seeds from the jalapeños before blending.
