INSTRUCTIONS
In an ungreased skillet over medium heat, roast half of the tomatillos
in their husks for about 10 minutes, turning frequently. Meanwhile,
husk the remaining tomatillos, dice fine, and place them in a bowl.
Cool the roasted tomatillos, then husk them and place them in a
blender. Roast the Habaneros over low heat, turning occasionally,
about 5 minutes, or until they are just soft and speckled with brown.
Wearing rubber gloves, stem and seed the Habaneros and add them to the
tomatillos in the blender. Puree the mixture. Squeeze one of the
oranges and pour the juice into the bowl containing the diced
tomatillos. Add the pureed chiles and tomatillos. Peel the other
orange, removing the pith; seed if necessary and cut into small dice.
Add the diced orange and the green onions to the salsa. Season the
salsa with salt and lime juice, and let stand for about half an hour
before serving. From: The Chile Pepper Book by Susan Belsinger and
