This tart is a pleasant departure from the standard thanks to the energizing flavors of lime and ginger.

Ingredients
- 1 pound tomatillos
- 1 serrano pepper, halved and seeded
- 1 jalapeno pepper, halved and seeded
- ½ large white onion, cut into 2 wedges
- 1 serving cooking spray
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- ½ cup chopped cilantro
- ½ lime, juiced, or more to taste
- 1 pinch salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Remove husks from tomatillos and rinse; cut tomatillos in half. Place tomatillos and peppers skin side-down into the air fryer basket. Add onion. Lightly spray vegetables with cooking spray to help the roasting process.
- Air fry vegetables for 5 minutes. Open basket and add garlic cloves. Spray lightly with cooking spray and air fry for an additional 5 minutes.
- Allow vegetables to cool for 10 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor. Add cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Pulse several times until vegetables are finely chopped to your desired consistency. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate to let flavors meld.
- The salsa will thicken upon cooling. You can add a bit of water to thin it out if desired.
Reviews
Thanks for the Great recipe. I love using my air fryer for everything. We live Texas and I don’t need to heat up the kitchen in summer. I added some salt but that’s it. I made exactly as directed.
