- In a large skillet, roast the pumpkin seeds, stirring frequently to prevent burning. When seeds start to puff up a bit, remove them from the heat.
- Remove vegetables from grill/oven. Allow to cool.
- In a food processor or blender, grind cooled pumpkin seeds.
- Put onion, garlic and cilantro in blender/food processor with seeds. Blend in.
- Cut tomatillos in half. Remove seeds and pulp. Flip over, remove charred skin. Add to blender/food processor. Blend in.
- Taste the dip. Decide the amount of salt you may want to add. Use no more than a teaspoon.
- Carefully cut open chile pepper, removing stem, seeds, and ribs. Flip over and remove charred skin. Place in blender.
- Wash hands after handling chile pepper. After adding salt and chile peppers, blend thoroughly.
- Serve in a bowl. Dip can be eaten with tortilla chips, flarbreads or crackers. Serve with cucumber slices for a grain free option.
- Substitutions: For a red version, use Roma tomatos instead of tomatillos. If you prefer a more mild dip, use a dash of paprika instead of a chile pepper.
Roughly chop green onion tops and add to food processor. Pulse until everything is combined and dip is creamy but still a little chunky. In the same skillet, char the chiles and tomatoes while turning frequently until blistered in spots. Stir into the pumpkin seed powder and add cilantro and chives.
