Peruvian Aji Amarillo Cheese Sauce image

A cheese sauce that goes well with Peruvian/Latin American foods. I learned the recipe from an elderly Peruvian woman! Especially good with Peruvian 'Lomos Saltado,' or as a topping for baked potatoes and hard-boiled eggs. If you want it spicier, leave a few of the seeds with the peppers.

This sauce is okay. It's not my favorite, but it's not bad either. I think I would prefer it if it was less spicy.
