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. Busted by Christopher E. Eaves
