Wienerschnitzel's Chili Sauce Recipe - Cooking Index
3/4 lb | 340g / 11oz | Ground beef |
1/4 lb | 113g / 4oz | Ground pork |
6 cups | 1422ml | Water |
1/4 cup | 15g / 0.5oz | Cornstarch |
1/2 cup | 31g / 1.1oz | Wondra flour - see * Note |
1 | Tomato paste - (6 oz) | |
1/4 cup | 59ml | Chili powder (McCormick) |
3 tablespoons | 45ml | White vinegar |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Salt |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Dried minced onion |
1 1/2 teaspoons | 7.5ml | Granulated sugar |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Freshly-ground black pepper |
* Note: Wondra flour is a finely-ground quick-mixing flour used in sauces and gravies. It is made by Gold Medal and can usually be found in the baking aisle next to the other flour.
Brown ground beef and ground pork in a large saucepan over medium heat. Crumble and chop the meat with a spoon or spatula as it cooks. When the meat is completely browned cover saucepan and turn heat to low. This way the ground meat will slowly simmer in it's own juices.
After ten minutes, remove the ground meat from the heat and drain off most of the fat. Keep some of it in the pan.
While the meat is still off the heat add the water and the cornstarch. Whisk the cornstarch thoroughly as it's added until it's dissolved into the water. Do the same for the Wondra flour.
You can now set the pan over medium heat and add the remaining ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil stirring often.
When chili begins to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. When chili is done it will be much thicker and darker, like the real thing. And, like the original, you can use this chili sauce on hot dogs, hamburgers, french fries or take it solo.
This recipe yields 6 cups.
