Recipe is created for
TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Tip
This versatile sauce is ideal for serving with tacos, nachos or enchiladas.
I like to chop the capsicum by hand for a chunky consistency however you can add it to the onion and garlic in step 1 if you'd prefer to save time. You could also use fresh chili instead of powder and chop with the onion and garlic.

A great quick & tasty taco sauce recipe thank you! Hadn’t read comments until now as it was an impromptu Mexican dinner with extended family (hence no jar of sauce in the cupboard) but I like the sound of the chicken tacos...could be using leftovers for that tonight I think!

Great recipe, and I used my TM31
I read the tips and comments then used a red chili at step one, can of kidney beans at the last stage. In a Thermoserver, mixed in 200gm of chopped chicken pieces (grilled in a TM Mexican spice mix). Then topped with cheese, melted under oven grill. Added guacamole and thick yoghurt. Best nachos we've ever had. Thank You!

I like this sauce. It is easy to make, with simple ingredients, and it tastes fresh.
Will never buy store bought
Will never buy store bought taco sauce again. This was delicious. We like spicy so was a little more generous with the chilli powder.
Made this for beef nachos
Made this for beef nachos tonight and it was great. I added some corn, kidney beans and a tbsp of YIAH Fajita spice blend. Kids and hubby couldn't get enough of it!
We loved it! Was the perfect
We loved it! Was the perfect texture, consistency and flavour. Just like the one we normally buy but without the nasties.
Was a bit thin and lack
Was a bit thin and lack lustre for nachos. I left out the water and it still needed longer to reduce and thicken a bit more. Might need to tweak it to build the flavours a bit more, a good mild sauce though
