Recipe by Chef Seamus Mullen of New York's El Colmado Mullen serves these robustly flavored meatballs as a shared plate at El Colmado, his New York City tapas bar, but they're also a great main.

Ingredients

  • 3 pasilla chiles, seeds removed, chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon cumin seeds
  • 1/4 cup Sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sweet smoked paprika
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • Kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Toast chiles, red pepper flakes, and cumin seeds in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant and cumin seeds are golden, about 3 minutes.
  2. Let cool. Working in batches, finely grind in spice mill, then transfer to a blender. Add vinegar, paprika, and garlic to blender and blend until smooth. With motor running, gradually stream in oil and blend until combined. Transfer to a large bowl; season with salt.
  3. Do ahead: Chile sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
