Notes

Adapted from here
I love meat patties, but sometimes they need to be partnered with a sauce that has a bit of "attitude" to lighten the load ... and this sauce does exactly that ... it is divine!
The prep couldn't be easier, and the resulting sauce can be served with just about anything ... meat, poultry, veggies, grains ... the list goes on!
If you don't have jalapeño, use a green or red chilli instead ... but decide if you wish to incorporate the seeds as that is where most of the heat is, so deseed if necessary.
