Ingredients for Mesa Verde (Green Sauce) Recipe

1 lb Fresh green chiles; diced

1/3 c Onion; diced
1 tb Salt
1 ts Granulated garlic
1 ts Dried leaf oregano
2 c Water
3 tb Flour
2 tb Vegetable oil

Mesa Verde (Green Sauce) Preparation

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.
