This is my MIL's recipe. I eat the tamales just to get the sauce! It is so simple and so good. I like it best served room temperature. And its best to let it sit a little before serving for the flavors to blend.
Ingredients:
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 large potatoes or 2 small potatoes
1 small onion, chopped
1 teaspoon oregano
hot pickled chili pepper, and juice to taste
salt
Directions:
1. Cook and dice potatoes (I cook in boiling water, then peel and dice) Mix all ingredients together.
2. Start with 3 or 4 peppers and just 1-2 tsp of juice.
3. Then add more to taste.
4. But let sit at least 20-30 minutes so you can tell how hot it is!
