Wash and quarter tomatillos. Purée in blender with the cilantro and jalapeno
Add all ingredients into a in a 4 quart crockpot. Stir well.
Cook on low heat setting for 6 to 8 hours or on high setting for 3 to 4 hours
For a thicker sauce (the tomatillos will release a lot of juice) mix 2 teaspoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add to the slow cooker about ½ an hour before serving. For a thinner sauce add a bit of water or stock.
