Interesting. Recipe?

Cameron --

I do not have a recipe offhand, but I know Mark Miller has one in his first
cookbook -- "Coyote Cafe".  It involves blistering yellow bell peppers and
guero chiles in hot oil and then pureeing the whole mixture with romaine
lettuce leaves (I think).  I'm not sure how traditional his version is, but
it is the only one I have seen a recipe for.

I can say, however, that it is delicious -- I made a variation of it once a
number of years back when I was still working in a restaurant.  I served it
over rare ahi tuna with tomato rice pilaf, black beans, and wilted spinach
with garlic and goat's cheese.  I will get the recipe when I am home tonight
and post it.

Matt
