Mexican Red Almond Dipping Sauce (Vegan) image

From a Mexican cookbook. A nice sweet and spicy dipping sauce, an interesting alternative to salsa and tomatillo sauce. Perfect for nacho chips and fritters! I liked this sauce with cheese arepas.

Time 35m

Yield 1 3/4 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup toasted slivered almonds
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed (I use1/2 tsp liquid-y chopped garlic)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon ground red chile (I used red pepper flakes)
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (I used cayenne)

Steps:

  • Put the almonds in a food processor and pulverize until finely ground.
  • Cook onion and garlic in oil over medium heat, stirring frequently, until onion is tender (about 10-15 minutes).
  • Stir in all the other ingredients except the ground almonds. (I found it easier to turn the heat off first, then add the tomato sauce followed by everything else, then put the heat back on.).
  • Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer 1 minute stirring constantly;.
  • stir in almonds.
  • Serve hot with some corn chips and/or arepas, and enjoy!. Makes about 1 3/4 cups of sauce.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover roasted almonds. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted cashew nuts instead. The sauce was still delicious!

I didn't have any roasted almonds on hand, so I used raw almonds and toasted them in a pan. They worked just as well.

This sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a hotter chili powder. Next time I'll use a milder one.

This almond dipping sauce was a delightful surprise! I wasn't sure what to expect, but the flavors were incredibly well-balanced and delicious. It had just the right amount of heat, smokiness, and acidity.
