Andean Herbs Chili Sauce

The Andes is home for some amazing herbs. Some of them, very strong flavored, others with a much more subtle flavor. This time we used Huacatay. This herb has an amazing strong flavor and is regularly found in neighborhood markets all around Peru.
The sauce is simple, very rich and tasty; and can be used as a dipping sauce or as a side with any kind of grilled cut. Great with Poultry, Pork and Fish. However you can also do beef and it will be very nice.
Enjoy!

Green Chili Sauce Green Chili Sauce
After making chicken enchiladas with green sauce, using a canned sauce, I decided to try and make my own homemade green chili sauce. Looked at a bunch of recipes and combined them to make this one. It came out great and is much better than the canned sauce. Note: I tried using red Fresno peppers but after roasting the skins got tough and I could not remove so I threw them out. fenway -

Sweet and spicy chilli sauce Sweet and spicy chilli sauce
This is a sweet yet spicy tomato sauce that I like to add to my chilli. You could put it on anything you wanted too really but it's a really good fit when mixed into a chilli I think. If you don't want the sweetness to it simply substitute the 9 roma tomatoes with 4 beefsteak tomatoes and leave out the brown sugar entirely. When prepping the peppers don't include the bell peppers' seeds into the mixture however, do include the habanero seeds. Ticsen Vorel -
