Salsa de chile pasilla

Salsa de chile pasilla is a traditional sauce originating from Central Mexico. This sauce is usually made with a combination of pasilla chili peppers, garlic, chopped white onions, water, and salt. The chili peppers are toasted on a griddle or a comal over medium heat.

Once toasted, they're blended with the salt, garlic, and water. It's recommended not to overblend the sauce as it should have some texture. The salsa is placed into a dish or a bowl, then topped with the chopped onions. It's usually served with tacos, chicken, and beef.
