    3 dried negro (pasilla) chile peppers, stemmed and seeded
    3/4 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
    1/4 white onion
    1 clove garlic, peeled
    water to cover
    3/4 pound Roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
    1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules, or to taste
Preparation
    Place chile peppers in the bottom of a small saucepan. Add tomatillos, onion, and garlic. Pour in enough water to almost cover tomatillos. Arrange tomatoes over tomatillos.
