Recipe View Blend sauce: Place toasted tomatillos, serrano peppers, and garlic in a blender. Add water and blend until smooth; pour into a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil.

Recipe View Garnish and serve: Spoon a generous amount of sauce over rolled tortillas. Top with lettuce, cilantro, crema, and cotija cheese. Pour remaining sauce on top or serve on the side. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth instead of bouillon granules.
Adjust the number of serrano peppers to control the spiciness of the sauce.
If you don't have cotija cheese, queso fresco makes a good substitute.
To prevent tortillas from tearing, ensure the oil is hot enough and don't over-fry them.
