PAPAS A LA HUNCAINA, MAS O MENO
1 lb small red potatoes, cut in half
Juice of 1/2 lime
2 tsp achiote seeds, ground and sifted as described
2 shallots, coarsely chopped
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 habanero chile, ripe, roasted, peeled and chopped
2 tblsp or so olive oil
3-4 oz goat cheese
Boil potatoes until done but still firm. Mix all other ingredients
except goat cheese in a blender. Drain potatoes, stir in goat
cheese, then pour sauce over and mix. Serve immediately, preferably
with either bread or tortillas to wipe up the last of the sauce.
(Kim and I almost fought over it...)
Note: This is quite hot, but awfully good. The achiote, lime
juice, and habanero work very nicely together, and the potatoes
offset a lot of the fire. We served it with something simple like
either a roasted chicken or shark in lime juice.
