TOMATILLOS resemble small green tomatoes with a papery husk. Tark lemony
flavor, used in salsas. Available canned or fresh. If you need a small
amount, substitute a salsa verde that is mostly tomatillos.

Notes: Here is a lower fat alternative to the classic dish. Since it has
such a lovely color, I suggest serving it in a Mexican terra cotta bowl
surrounded by blue corn tortilla chips.
