| 1. Saute the chiles, onion and garlic in a tablespoon of the oil until soft. | 2. Place in a blender or food processor along with the peanuts, crackers, cheese, milk and cilantro and puree until smooth. | 3. Add the lemon juice and, with the machine running, add the oil a little at a time until the sauce is the desired consistency. | 4. Heat before serving, and store any extra in the refrigerator. | 5. Note: Using saltine crackers to thicken a sauce is unusual but not uncommon in Peru. | 6. This all-purpose sauce can be served with potatoes, french fries, corn chips, fried foods, seafood, steaks or anything else imaginable. | 7. The more you add, the hotter it gets and the BETTER it tastes. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
