1 small yellow onion, diced (about 3/4 cup)
1 large jalapeño pepper, finely diced (see note)
4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed through a garlic press
3 tablespoons plain flour
Cup of whole milk and a cup of half fat cream
4 ounces grated sharp Cheddar cheese
4 ounces grated Monterey Jack Cheese
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons finely diced tomatoes (use only the flesh, no seeds or juice)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional for more heat
Begin by melting the butter in a medium saucepan.
Sauté the onions and jalapeños until soft, then add the garlic and cook about 30 seconds more.
Add the flour.
Cook, stirring constantly, for about a minute.
Then pour in the milk and cream after mixing.
Bring to a simmer and cook for a few minutes, or until thickened. Reduce the heat to low and gradually add the shredded cheese, whisking as you go.
When all of the cheese is incorporated, stir in the cumin, salt and tomatoes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary; if you’d like more heat, add the optional red pepper flakes.
Then throw it down the sink or give it to someone that you dislike. Or add to the Cauldron.
