Môlho de Acaraj (Chile-Shrimp Sauce)
This Brazilian sauce is traditionally served over black-eyed pea 
fritters (acaraj, called accra in the West Indies), but can also be 
spread over other bland foods such as potatoes. It has an intense shrimp 
flavor and high heat. It is traditionally made with dende, palm oil, but 
I have substituted one with less saturated fat. Variation: Add 1 
teaspoon minced cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger to the paste.
Makes
3/4 cup
6 large shrimps, cooked, shelled, deveined, and mashed
1 onion, minced
5 fresh malagueta chiles, seeds and stems removed, minced, or substitute 
tabascos, Thais, or piquins,
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, or more if needed
Methods/steps
With a mortar and pestle, crush together the shrimps, onion, chiles, and 
salt to make a paste.
Heat the oil and saute the paste for 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
