Peanut Butter Uglies Recipes

SALSA GUILLE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium Dutch oven or other heavy pot over high. Add onion, garlic, and chiles. Reduce heat to maintain a low simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, chiles are blistered, and garlic is golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender or food processor and let cool 10 minutes.
• Add peanut butter, bouillon, and ½ tsp. salt to blender and purée. Remove small inset lid from top and, with the machine on the lowest setting, slowly pour in half the cooking oil (1 cup). Blend until salsa is velvety and emulsified. (Discard remaining oil or strain and reserve for another use, such as frying eggs or cooking the mushrooms for these tacos). Taste salsa and season with more salt if needed.
• Transfer to a small bowl and top with peanuts just before serving.
• Do ahead: Salsa (without peanut topping) can be made 2 weeks ahead. Cover and chill.

HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the peanuts onto a large baking tray, place in the oven and roast for 10 mins, stirring now and then to ensure they don't catch at the edges. When golden brown, remove from the oven and leave to cool completely.
• Tip the nuts into a food processor, and add the salt. Blend for 4-5 mins, until you're left with a smooth nut butter, if you want to loosen the consistency, add a drizzle of oil and blend again.
