2 lb. green, unripe tomatoes or tomatillos
1 small onion
1 big handful of coriander or parsley w/o stems
1 or 2 hot green peppers or jalapenos
3 garlic cloves
salt and pepper, to taste

Boil tomatoes in water until soft to the touch of a fork, or starting to burst open. Using a blender or food processor, put all of the ingredients in and blend until it is a uniform consistency. Repeat as many times as needed to blend all of the tomatoes, using water in which it was boiled. Put back into pot to bring to a boil and adjust seasonings.

You can put into jars for using later on enchiladas verdes, nachos, tacos, etc.

FOR A MEAL: you can also put chicken strips in the boiling salsa, with small peeled potatoes diced into quarters. Also, meatballs go great with this dish or even pork meat cubes. Enjoy!
