Tomatillo Sauce with Mushrooms and CarrotsThis cooked tomatillo sauce has the added colors, flavors, and texture of carrot and mushrooms. The sauce is good served over just about any meat, or for a vegetarian meal, over rice or pasta.
Bring to a boil 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan, and cook the tomatillos over high heat until barely tender, about 3 minutes.
Drain the tomatillos and put them in a food processor or blender.
Pulse to a coarse puree.
The sauce should have some texture.
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the sauce and stir in the mushrooms and carrot.
Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, partially covered but stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms and carrot are tender and the sauce thickens, 8 to 10 minutes.
