Instructions
- Add the vegetable oil to a Dutch oven and heat it over medium-high heat. Add the flour and chili powder and whisk it for about 1 minute.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, water and the rest of the spices. Stir well and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until thickened.
- Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed.
Notes
- This will yield about 2 1/2 to 3 cups of sauce.
- Gluten-Free: For a gluten free version, try gluten-free flour or rice flour. Using cornstarch will make the sauce too thick. Another option is to use masa.
- Store in jars or an air tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Nutrition: Nutritional information assumes 1/4 cup per serving.
