Ancho Ranchero Sauce Recipe

10 Ancho peppers
5 cloves garlic
2 tomatoes, cut up
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cup chopped onions

1/2 bunch cilantro, tied together
1 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken stock
Juice of 3 limes
Salt
Maple syrup



Seed Ancho peppers, soak in hot water until soft, then puree in a food processor or blender.

Roast garlic and tomatoes in a 350 degree oven until softened and darkened in spots.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium saucepan and saute onions until golden. Add carrots and saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Add roasted garlic and tomatoes, jalapeno, corn, tortilla strips, cilantro and Ancho puree. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove and discard corn and cilantro. Strain sauce.

Add lime juice, and season to taste with salt and maple syrup

I don't think ranchero sauce should be hot and I've never had it with corn, so I would edit the above recipe accordingly and go with that.

essentially some sauted auromatics with roasted tomatoes and garlic with a little ancho thrown in for seasoning.
