Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup chili powder
2 cups water
¼ cup tomato sauce
salt to taste
garlic powder to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, then add the chili powder and cook for 1 more minute. Gradually stir in the water, mixing well with a whisk to make sure you get out all the lumps, then stir in the tomato sauce and season with salt and garlic powder to taste.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. (Note: If sauce thickens too much, just add a little water to thin it out a bit.)
