1/4 tsp. ground cayenne
2 scallions
1 clove garlic

Freshly ground pepper
2 tbsp. sour cream
2 tbsp. mayonnaise

Heat a medium skillet until hot to the touch. Add the tomatillos and cook over high heat, turning, until blackened in spots but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos to a plate. Add the oil to the skillet along with the cumin, coriander and cayenne and cook over moderate heat just until fragrant, about 30 seconds; let cool.
Coarsely chop the tomatillos and transfer to a medium bowl. Add the scallions, garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice and spiced oil. Season the salsa with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, stir the sour cream and mayonnaise with 1/2 cup of the salsa.
