Recipe: Vegan chili bechamel
Hot Sauces
September 24, 2010
This year I'm growing many mild chili plants: the Banana Sweet with its big crispy pods, and the Redskin, a dwarf plant that produces small red bell peppers.
I added some Cascabel, oval chilies that show some corks when ripe, similar to the Jalapeno.
With these chilies I prepared this vegan bechamel, perfect for gratins, croutons and fritters.
Vegan chili bechamel
Ingredients
350g chillies
3 cloves garlic
1 white onion
50ml white vinegar
40g sugar
2 tbsp raisins
50g flour
Directions
Remove the stem and chop the peppers with the food processor with onion, garlic and vinegar.
Place them in a pan, add the raisins and sprinkle with flour, then cook for 15 minutes over low heat, until the sauce thickens.
Tips
Chili Bechamel can be stored in the refrigerator.
It can be used as a chili sauce for fajitas, nachos and other tex-mex and mexican recipes.
