The late proprietor of the Houston chain Ninfa’s is credited with inventing this green sauce that is a very popular staple of Tex-Mex cuisine, especially in the Houston area. This stuff is awesome. Adapted from Texas Home Cooking. The recipe has been printed in the Houston Chronicle several times.

Ingredientes

Cost per serving $2.10 view details
  • 3 medium ripe avocados peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 3 medium green tomatoes, coarsely chopped (you can substitute yellow if you can't find green ones, but never use red)
  • 4 tomatillos, cleaned and chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 4 sprigs cilantro
  • 1 to 2 jalapenos, stemmed and coarsely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste (I use Lowry's seasoned salt for additional flavor)

Direcciones

  1. Combine chopped tomatoes, tomatillos, jalapenos and garlic in a saucepan. Bring to a boil (tomatoes provide the liquid), reduce heat and simmer 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. Place tomato mixture with the avocados, cilantro and salt in food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
  3. Add sour cream and blend until smooth.
  4. Serve over your favorite food or with tortilla chips.
