Taco Sauce
Ingredients
15ml / 1 tbsp oil
1 onion diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 red and 1 green chilli pepper
2.5ml ½ tsp ground cumin
2.5ml / ½ tsp ground coriander
½ clove garlic, crushed
Pinch salt, pepper and sugar
400g / 14oz canned tomatoes
Tomato puree (optional)
Method
Heat the oil in a heavy based saucepan and when hot add the onion and pepper
Cook slowly to soften slightly
Chop the chilli and add with the cumin, coriander, garlic and cook a further 2-3 minutes
Add sugar, seasonings and tomatoes with their juice
Break up the tomatoes with a fork or a potato masher
Cook a further 5-6 minutes over moderate heat to reduce and thicken slightly
Add tomato puree for colour, if necessary
Adjust seasoning and use hot or cold according to your recipe.
Note:
I prefer to add more chillis!
Use in tacos, tostadas, nachos and as a dip for tortilla chips or vegetable crudities
