SALSA VERDE AUSSIE GRASSFED GROUND BEEF WONTON CRISPS

A MERRY RECIPE SALSA VERDE

Ingredients:

12 ounces tomatillos, peeled (about 3 cups)

1 cup cilantro, stems okay

3 garlic cloves

3 green onions

1 jalapeños or 1/2 Serrano if you like it hot

1 poblano pepper, charred, scrape skin, remove stems and seeds

1 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until salsa consistency. Occasionally, the salsa needs a little lime juice or agave syrup dependent on the flavor of the tomatillos. I did not use lime nor agave in my recipe this time.

SALSA VERDE AUSSIE GRASSFED GROUND BEEF FILLING

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 cup fresh corn, optional

1/2 medium onion, chopped

1/2 cup poblano pepper, chopped

1 pound Aussie Grassfed Ground Beef

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon ground cumin, if desired, add more

1/2 to 1 cup A Merry Recipe Salsa Verde

WONTON CRISPS

1 package wonton skins

oil for frying, 1/2-inch canola oil in skillet, 350°F

1 cup guacamole or smashed salted avocado

4 ounces pepper jack or Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded

A Merry Recipe Salsa Verde

1 cup Sliced Tomatoes

Instructions:

Over medium-high heat, combine canola oil and corn; roast for about 4 minutes. Adjust heat to medium and add the onion and poblano pepper. Sauté until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Adjust heat to medium-high and add ground beef, salt, and cumin. Break up the meat with a spatula, and cook until beef has browned.

Add desired amount of Salsa Verde dependent on fattiness of ground meat. Aussie Grassfed Beef is super lean so I add 1 cup of salsa verde. Set filling aside.

Heat 1/2-inch oil to 350°F in a large skillet. Fry wontons in batches until golden, flipping each wonton one time. Spread guacamole over each crisp wonton and top with filling, cheese, salsa verde, and a tomato slice.

Yields: 36 wonton crisps
