Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

El Chico Salsa Verde


mexican, sauces, condiments, dips, tex-mex

2 tablespoon pumpkin seeds; pureed
2 tablespoon green chiles; minced
1/4 cup parsley; chopped
2 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup cooking oil
1 salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon roux (1 part cooking oil
1 to 2 parts flour)

Toast pumpkin seeds until brown, or use pumpkin seeds called Pepitas (This I'd prefer. I think you can get these at the spice rack in the store). Grind, with the chiles and parsley, very fine. In a skillet, with 1/4 C cooking oil, add a little of the chicken stock. Add the green chile mixture and stir well, then add the remaining chicken stock. Salt and pepper, to taste, and cook for a few minutes on medium heat. Add roux, and stir, cooking until it thickens then remove from fire. If not to be used immediately, then store in 'fridge. Heat only when you need to use it.
