- VEGETERIAN GREEN CHILE
-
- I serve this sauce over enchiladas, burritos, eggs, beans, using fresh
- New Mexico green chiles. Do not use canned chiles for this recipe. (They
- just don't taste like green chiles to me.)
- Amounts are approximate. I usually just dump ingredients, esp. chile
- and garlic, until it looks "right". This is a very forgiving recipe
- and very basic. I so much appreciate the taste of fresh, unadulterated green
- chile and garlic, that I rarely add any other seasonings.
-
- 1 onion chopped
- 3-4 garlic cloves, smashed or chopped (I use more!!)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 6 cups vegetable stock or vegetable bouillon
- 12 roasted, peeled, chopped green chile (adjust according to
- heat of the chile)
- 2 Tbsp. flour or cornstarch
- salt & pepper to taste
-
- Procedure:
-
- Saute onion, garlic in olive oil. Add chile, stock. Add salt and pepper.
- Dissolve flour or cornstarch in a cup of hot water and add, stirring to
- prevent lumps. Simmer for 45 minutes.
-
- Optional ingredients:
- 1-2 potatos diced (1/2" or so)
- 1-2 chopped tomatos
- 1-2 whatever else
- cilantro, cumin, oregano
-
- Add with the chile and stock.
- Potatos help thicken the chile, especially after it has been frozen since
- they tend to disintegrate in the freezer. Add the cilantro after it has
- simmered to retain the fresh cilantro flavor.
