Hot sauce from Aji Mirasol

I wanted to make New Mexican red chili sauce but found only Aji Mirasol from the local store. Here I have combined a New Mexican chili sauce recipe with a Aji Mirasol sauce recipe I found on Internet. The fresh chili is calledd Aji Amarillo and they come from Peru.

Ingredients for the sauce.

This recipe will give you 0,5 l of chili sauce:

20 dried pods of Aji Mirasol
3 cloves of garlic
half large onion
7 dl water or vegetable buillon
1 tsp dried oregano
0,5 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp vinegar

Remove the stems and the seeds from chili pods. Pour the water in a casserole and add the chilis, garlic, onion and oregano. Boil the mix on low fire for 15 minutes. Let it sit for 10 more minutes.

When the chilis look like this you can put them into a mixer.

Put everyhing into a mixer with cumin and vinegar and mix it to a smooth chili sauce. Season with salt.

Wonderful chili sauce for instance to use in tortillas.
