Also see article: Some Like It Hot
 

INGREDIENTS

· 1 large onion, chopped
· 2 large potatoes, peeled, halved lengthwise, and sliced thin
· 3 tablespoons olive oil
· 1 lb chorizo sausage, sliced
· 6 garlic cloves, chopped
· 1 batch of habanero sauce*
· Salt & pepper to taste.
 

DIRECTIONS

Sauté the onions and potatoes in the oil until they start to soften. Add the chorizo and continue sautéing until everything is almost cooked. Add the garlic and sauté one minute. Then add the sauce and simmer for a few more minutes.  Do I have to mention the tortillas?
 

HABANERO SAUCE.
· 1 cup water
· 1/3 cup of red wine vinegar
· 1-3 fresh or dried habanero peppers, depending on how hot you like it.
· 1 large red bell pepper
· 1 tablespoon paprika
· 1 teaspoon cumin
· 1 teaspoon salt

Chop up the bell and habanero peppers, (or grind the habaneros if using dried).  Bring all of the ingredients to a boil, and then simmer for 8-10 minutes.  Finally, puree the mixture in a blender.  Here are some recipes you can use it in. If you want to try these recipes but don’t want the heat, just eliminate the habaneros from the sauce mixture. You will still have a delicious red bell pepper sauce.
