Sautee serranos, garlic, and onion =91til onion is soft, about 5 minutes.

Add everything else, except the salt and pepper, and cook 15 minutes. It spatters a lot so either cover partially or use a splatter screen. Reduce heat and simmer until thick and most of liquid has evaporated, about ½ hour. Process and season with salt and pepper to taste.

I make this whenever I have a bunch of fresh chiles, so the exact heat level varies. But this is a wonderful way to keep fresh chile. It helps if all the peppers are the same color or color group, but that's not necessary. I put this on everything from grilled beast to sandwiches.

I "can" this by putting in hot, sterile jars and process in hot water for 15 minutes.
