Ingredients

• 8 medium Tomatillos
• 3 large Green chiles (such as Anaheim or Hatch)
• 1 small Jalapeño pepper
• 2 large Garlic cloves
• 0.5 cups Cilantro leaves
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons Water (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Peel the husks off the tomatillos and rinse them well under running water to remove their sticky residue.

Step 3

Place the tomatillos, green chiles, jalapeño pepper, and unpeeled garlic cloves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 4

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are charred and softened.

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the roasted vegetables cool for 5-10 minutes.

Step 7

Peel the skins off the green chiles and jalapeño pepper. Remove the stems and seeds if a milder chutney is desired.

Step 8

Peel the roasted garlic cloves and transfer them, along with the tomatillos, green chiles, jalapeño, cilantro leaves, lime juice, honey, salt, and ground cumin, to a blender or food processor.

Step 9

Blend the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if the chutney is too thick.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.

Step 11

Transfer the chutney to a serving bowl and let it cool to room temperature before serving.

Step 12

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
