Instructions
Mix the peppers, olive oil, tomatillos, onion, garlic,
and green tomatoes. Pour the veggies out onto a
baking sheet, and roast in a 400 to 425 degree oven
until they are "wilted" with dark brown flecks.
(Alternatively, place them in a grill basket and grill
them, keeping the kitchen cool!) Puree the veggies
in a blender or food processor with the cilantro and
lime juice. Taste, and add salt as desired.The salsa
can be served immediately, but if you want to store
it, it will have better keeping quality if simmered (in
a stainless steel, not aluminum!) pan for about 20
minutes. Then it can be cooled and refrigerated.
