Monday, 16 November 2009
Description
The smoked red jalapeño, known as the chipotle chile, has gained such popularity that there's even a couple of cookbooks devoted to it! It particularly works well with barbecuing and grilling, both of which have considerable smoke associated with them.

About 4 cups
3 dried chipotle chiles 1 cup water 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 medium onion, chopped fine 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 red bell peppers, quartered, seeds removed 2 onions, sliced thickly 3 tomatoes, cut in half 2 cups ketchup 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 1/4 cup brown sugar
Methods/steps
In a bowl, combine the chipotle chiles with very hot water and soak for 60 minutes or more to soften. Chop the chipotles finely. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil and saute the onion. After the onion is translucent, add the garlic and continue to saute for 2 minutes. To roast the bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, place them on the grill over a medium fire and grill until they are soft and slightly blackened. Remove, peel, and chop the vegetables. In a large sauce pan, combine all the ingredients and bring the mixture to a low boil over a medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Let the mixture cool and puree in a blender or food processor until smooth. You can thin the mixture with water if you so desire.
