Cooking Recipes Catalogue
Advertizing:

Tomato sauce, water, and seasonings are thickened with browned flour. Chicken or beef stock could be substituted for the water to heighten flavor.

INGREDIENTS (for 8 servings):

PREPARATION:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, then add the chili powder and cook for 1 more minute. Gradually stir in the water, mixing well with a whisk to make sure you get out all the lumps, then stir in the tomato sauce and season with salt and garlic powder to taste.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. (Note: If sauce thickens too much, just add a little water to thin it out a bit.)
