Green Chile Sauce (makes 4 cups)
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons veggie oil
1 cup chopped onions
4 tablespoons flour
2 cups chopped green chile
2 cups chicken broth (or veggie broth: Knorr™ bouillon
cubes work great)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (or a chopped clove or
two)
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1.5 teaspoons salt
Directions:
In a saucepan, heat the oil. Sauté the onions
along with the cumin & oregano until the onions
get tender. Meanwhile, heat (or microwave!) your
broth in
a separate container to boiling or almost boiling.
Roux time! Add the flour to the onions. Cook it
for
another 3 minutes or so. Stir it a lot so it
doesn't
burn. Add the boiling broth to the roux and stir
vigorously. You want a thickened broth with no
clumps of flour. Add the remaining ingredients,
and simmer the sauce for at least 20 minutes. |
