MEXICAN MOLCAJETE SHRIMP
Steps:
- Start by boiling the tomatillos and chiles de árbol in two cups of water. Boil until completely cooked, then let cool for 10 minutes. Afterward, purée the tomatillos and peppers along with the boiled water. Season with salt as desired.
- Pre-heat the molcajete (stone mortar) in the oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit-this step isn't necessary, but I do it to keep the shrimp hot while at the table.
- Separately, in a medium-sized skillet add the olive oil and butter; place over medium-high heat and let the butter completely melt before adding the sliced onion. Sauté for one minute then stir-in the chopped garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds and incorporate the shrimp. Stir occasionally and cook until the shrimp have begun to turn orange in color. When ready, pour the tomatillo salsa over the shrimp and simmer until the sauce begins to boil.
- Using oven mitts remove the molcajete from the oven and place over a heat-proof surface or dish (to avoid burning your table!) To finish, spoon the cooked shrimp with tomatillo sauce into the molcajete and garnish with diced avocado and queso fresco. Accompany with toast or corn tortillas and enjoy!

Steps:
- Roast tomatillos, garlic and chile directly over flames on a grill (or if you do not have one, I use a cast iron fry pan).
- Turn often so as not to burn.
- When they are all soft, transfer to mortar and pestal (molcajete); mash all ingredients--the consistency should be chunky.
- Add salt or soup mix to taste.
- Olive oil can be added if you like, but is not necessary. Cilantro can be added as well.
- A variation of this recipe is to use tomatoes and grill them till charred and proceed with the rest of the ingredients.
