Serves/Makes: 3 cups | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup oil
2 tablespoons mild chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 2/3 cups water
Add the flour to a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring the flour constantly, until the flour is lightly toasted. Remove the skillet from the heat.
In a large skillet, add the oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and garlic and cook over medium heat until the spices are fragrant. Stir in the toasted flour until smooth.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and very slowly stir in the water until it is completely mixed and smooth.
Simmer the sauce for one hour, stirring occasionally.
Let the sauce cool until lukewarm and use as needed. Or, let it cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
