Enchilada Sauce (mild)

4 - 6 tbsp oil (corn or vegetable) or butter

1 tsp  garlic powder

1 tsp  onion powder

1 tsp  cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika

6 tbsps flour

1 Knorr chicken or beef broth cubes

4 cups water

1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce to taste, or blend some fresh tomatoes and use the sauce.

Dissolve Knorr cubes in 4 cups simmering water.  Let the chicken broth cool.  In 2 quart saucepan combine oil or butter, and flour to make a roux.  Add garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and smoked paprika.  Keep on heat until it is all combined, whisk in the broth and tomato sauce (to taste) or pureed tomatoes until smooth and thick.  I prefer using fresh tomatoes.
