Habanero Hot Sauce
Ingredients
- 12 medium habaneros, stemmed and seeded
- 1/2 cup onions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 cup carrots, chopped
- 1/2 cup vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Instructions
Saute the onion and garlic in the oil until soft. Add the carrots with a small amount of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until the carrots are soft. Place the chiles, vinegar and lime juice in a blender and blend until peppers are finely minced. Add the onion, garlic and carrots and puree the mixture until smooth. Return the mixture to the stove and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain the mixture into an empty hot sauce bottle. You get about 4 ounces. This is a fiery hot sauce that you need to use with care. Place the ingredients that were strained out into a jar and refrigerate. It will have the consistency of finely grated horseradish but the flavor of habanero fruit.
