Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Fill a kettle half full of water and bring to a boil. Add the tomatoes, tomatillos and jalapenos and boil 10 minutes. Drain the vegetables, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water. Peel the skin off the tomatoes and trim jalapeno stems.

  2. Step 2

    Transfer the tomatoes, tomatillos and jalapenos to a blender or food processor and add the onion and garlic. Pulse until the vegetables are coarsely chopped. Pulse in ¼ cup cilantro. Add some of the reserved water if the mixture is too thick.

  3. Step 3

    Transfer the salsa to a bowl and stir in the remaining cilantro, scallions, sugar and lime juice and season to taste with salt.
