Great sauce for enchiladas or any topping!
- In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until golden, about 5 minutes.
- Blend the chiles in the blender. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the other tablespoon of oil on low medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring so it doesn’t burn and turns gold. Gradually add water or broth, whisking constantly to smooth out any lumps.
- Add the blended chiles to the saucepan and add the cooked onion and garlic. Add cumin, black pepper, oregano and salt. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should be like gravy. Season with more salt if needed.
- Note: Keep refrigerated. Freeze in a non-glass container for up to 2 months. To make it gluten-free, use cornstarch instead of flour to thicken salsa.
