- 2 pounds tomatillos
- 4 dried chipotle chiles
- 2 pounds shiitake mushrooms
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 cup water
- Remove husks from tomatillos and rinse them. Place them whole on your oven's broiler rack. Broil and turn them until they're browned on all sides.
- Boil the water. Drop in the dried chiles and bring the water down to a simmer. Keep them in until they are soft.
- Slice the shiitakes and cook them in a pan with the olive oil until they're tender.
- Take the chiles and tomatillos (once they're cooled off) and blend them in a food processor until they make a nice puree.
- Put the blended tomatillo-chile mixture in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Add the cooked mushrooms and bring it back to a boil. Then bring the heat down until the mixture is simmering. Cook for about 10 minutes. Add salt to taste.
A friend gave me this recipe a while back, but I can't remember who it was. Sorry, friend.
