  TO FIRE ROAST CHILES AND TOMATILLOS: Option #1 - If you have a gas stove or smoker, you can place the tomatillos and chiles over the open fire to roast. Option #2 - Place tomatillos and chiles on baking sheet and place under oven broiler for just long enough for them to blacken (about 2 minutes per side). Remove and place in paper bag and close it. Leave in bag for about 5 minutes, then remove. The blackened skins will then be easy to remove. For milder sauce, remove seeds from chiles; for more robust flavor leave them in.
