| 1. Preheat broiler. Lightly coat a 2 quart square baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. Line a 15x10x1 inch baking pan with foil. Place tomatillos in baking pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until softened and charred, turning occasionally. Set aside to cool slightly. | 2. In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and chile pepper; cook and stir for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender and onion starts to brown. | 3. In a blender or food processor combine tomatillos, onion mixture, the ¼ cup cilantro, the sugar, cumin, and salt. Cover and blend until smooth, stopping and scraping sides as necessary. | 4.
