About 2 pounds of tomatillos (that's about 15-20). Shuck them.
Wash them very well. They are sticky under the husks.
Boil in salted water for about 15 minutes.
Drain.
They will be soft.
Rough chop 1-2 white onions (I did 1.5 tonight), peppers to your spicy level (I used 2 serranos, they are spicier than jalapenos), 4-5 garlic cloves, and 2 bunches of cilantro.
Put everything in the food processor. It will take 2-3 rounds to get it all.
Heat a couple tblsp of vegetable oil over medium-high heat (I know, I don't use vegetable oil much, but sometimes it's needed).
This 2nd batch has the cilantro, that's why it's greener.
Add water to get the consistency you need. I add between 1-3 cups depending on how juicy the tomatillos are. This batch used 1 glass of water.
Salt and pepper
About a tablespoon of sugar
About 1/4 cup of white vinegar
Once it comes to a simmer, reduce the heat to low. Let simmer for about 20 minutes.
