[Oz]

seen this recipe on the food network that i will try and just wanted to post it so
anyone else can too. should have picz of the made results in a week or so when
i do make. enjoy

salsa:
2 large ripe tomatoes, small diced
4 tomatillos, small diced
2 garlic cloves, pounded with the side of
a knife blade to release oils, then finely minced
1 handful fresh mint, about 2 ounces, rinsed
and stripped from stems, roughly chopped
1 handful fresh parsley, about 2 ounces, rinsed
and stripped from stems, roughly chopped
4 stalks fennel, small diced
Salt and pepper

taquitos:
12 tomatillos
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
12 chorizo sausages (1 to 11/2 pounds)
1 liter canola oil
12 corn tortillas (for taquitos) or use flour
tortillas (for flautas)
3 ounces brie cheese, white casing removed
6 ounces plain yogurt
6 scallions (green onions), white and tender
green parts only, sliced

directions:
Prepare salsa by combining tomatoes, tomatillos, garlic, mint, parsley,
and fennel. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Slice tomatillos in half, lengthwise and remove stem end and core. Scoop
out and discard the seeds, leaving as much pulp as possible. Place
tomatillos, cut side up on baking sheet. Combine garlic and oil and spoon
over the tomatoes, then season with salt and pepper. Roast for about
20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven to let cool. Cut tomatillos in
halves.

While the tomatillos are roasting, remove casings from chorizo and brown
in a fry pan over medium heat.

While the meat is browning, heat the canola oil in a deep-fryer to 375
degrees F. Lay the tortillas out on a utility platter.

Remove the browned sausage meat from heat, drain any extra fat from
the pan, then add brie and let the cheese melt into the meat. Stir in the
roasted tomatillos, yogurt and green onions.

Spoon the meat/cheese mixture evenly into each of the tortillas. Roll
them closed and secure with toothpicks. Deep-fry until golden brown
and drain on paper toweling. Remove toothpicks before serving. Serve
with tomatillo mint salsa.
