  1. Great flavor. Sauce didn't thicken up as much as I would have liked but the flavors were there. I served this spooned over chorizo/ground pork stuffed bell peppers. Yummy! [Made and reviewed for AUS/NZ recipe swap #29, June 2009]
     
  2. I was too in a hurry to make this so the procedure was a bit different, I used the microwave. So maybe it wasn't that thick like gailanng's but I made sure to mix it every now and then. So I sauted first the holy trinity with butter and olive oil, then added the rest subbing fleur de sel paticularly for the salt. It's so full of flavor that having this with Spanish chorizo and Recipe #142918 is awesome! Even my picky DH likes it. Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT5- Zaar Chow Hounds.
     
  3. A sauce with depth that exploits its culture and heritage at its finest. As the locals say, "There's a plate in the kitchen with you name on it." Made for ZWT5 Zingo.
