This will render appx 1 lrg 32oz. plastic takeout tub & 1 16oz. You can freeze leftovers.
2 green peppers
2 red peppers
2 Italian pepper
2 lrg white onions
Start w 1/2 clove of fresh garlic; add more depending on your taste. No more than 1 whole clove or too strong.
1 whole bunch cilanto
1 whole pkg or bag of recao
1 whole pkg or bag of aisito (looks like scotch bonnet peppers (habeneros) but not as hot)
Throw everything into food processor & add to dish(es) as needed. Store leftovers in plastic containers in freezer.
You will cry & feel like you've gone to a Puerto Rican section of heaven!
**you must be able to get to a local spanish or asian market for recao & aisito (can be spelled ajices too.)
