total timeIngredients
1 lb tomatillos, (husks removed and rinsed)
2-3 jalapeno peppers, (stems removed (remove the seeds if you don’t want it spicy)
1/2 cup water, (plus more for cooking)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 small onion
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 large eggs, (beaten)
Directions
Add tomatillos and jalapenos to a small pot. Add water until the tops are completely covered.
Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to simmer, cover, and cook for 3 more minutes until the color of the tomatillos begins to deepen.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatillos and peppers to a large blender.
Add 1/2 cup of water, cilantro, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, and cumin. Blend until smooth.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add eggs and cook for a few minutes, moving them around occasionally to scramble them, until the eggs are firm and lightly browned.
Add the salsa verde, reduce heat to low, and cook for 5 more minutes.
Taste and season with salt, if necessary. Serve with warm tortillas and enjoy.
