INSTRUCTIONS
Fresh green chiles make the best salsa, and frozen ones are sometimes
available in supermarkets. If you can't find either, substitute canned
Ortega Fire-Roasted green chiles. To prepare fresh green chiles, roast on a
barbecue grill, then peel the skins under running water or by rubbing with
a wet towel. Remove stem and seeds before dicing. Place chiles in a food
processor fitted with the metal blade and process to puree; set aside.
Blend flour with vegetable oil.
Place olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; add onion and saute
until translucent. Add salt and spices and reduce heat to medium. Add the
green chile puree, then water. Bring to a slow boil, stirring occasionally.
Add the flour/oil mixture gradually, stirring constantly, until mixture
thickens (you may not need to add all of it, depending on the amount of
juice in the chiles). Simmer 2 minutes, stirring continually to avoid
sticking. Transfer to a covered container and refrigerate. Serve chilled.
Makes 1 quart.
