Chile Colorado
(as requested by UMS)
Recipe Ingredients:
2 Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp shortening or vegetable oil
2-3 Tbsp New Mexico chile powder
1 can of chicken or beef stock
Minced or dried garlic
Salt
Method:
Heat about 2tbsp of shortening
(you can substitute vegetable oil)
at medium heat in a pan so that the bottom is coated about 1/8 inch.
Add 2tbsp of flour and stir so that it browns lightly and evenly.
Add 2-3 tbsp of chili powder (more if you like) into the pan.
Gradually stir in stock and water (about 1 can each) so that there are no lumps.
Add a pinch of garlic and salt to taste.
Simmer, stirring constantly for about 10-15 minutes.
Ground meat can be added to the chile if you like. You can also serve over a bed of Frito-Lay Fritos with shredded cheese to create the famous "Frito Pie." And really, why wouldn't you?
