Michael's Warm Mexican Salsa recipe 10

My husband loves to concoct things in the kitchen. Occasionally, the items he makes are a little strange. Most of the time his concoctions are wonderful. This is a salsa that he whipped up to go with a Mexican feast. This is the best salsa I have ever eaten.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup canned tomatoes with green chilies, divided
1 can chicken broth

1 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoon crushed cumin seed, divided
1 teaspoon dried cilantro leaves
1 can beef broth
1/2 cup milk


Combine butter and flour over medium heat to prepare a roux. Add1/8 cup tomatoes with green chilies. Mix well. When mixture dries out add chicken broth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. Add paprika, ground cumin, sea salt, pepper, chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of the cumin seed. Continue to simmer until mixture thickens. Add milk and continue cooking until mixture thickens again.
