Comment préparer Hot Aji Salsa
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 2-4 aji chiles (depending on desired heat level), stemmed and roughly chopped, to the skillet. Sauté for another 3-5 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Transfer the sautéed mixture to a blender or food processor. Add 1/2 cup roasted peanuts, 1/4 cup crushed crackers, 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco (or other firm cheese), 2 tablespoons milk, and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro.
- Blend until completely smooth, adding a little more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- With the blender running, slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup oil until the sauce emulsifies and reaches your desired thickness.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of lime juice.
- Gently heat the salsa before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Serve with your favorite foods: potatoes, french fries, tortilla chips, seafood, steaks, or anything you can imagine!
