PAPAS A LA HUNCAINA, MAS O MENO

Ingredients:
------------
1 lb small red potatoes, or any waxy-skinned variety cut in half or
into pieces no larger than 2" in any direction
Juice of 1/2 lime
2 tsp achiote seeds, ground and sifted as described
2 shallots, coarsely chopped
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 habanero chile, ripe, roasted, peeled and chopped
2 tblsp or so olive oil
3-4 oz goat cheese
Instructions:
-------------
Boil potatoes until done but still firm. Mix all other ingredients
except goat cheese in a blender. Drain potatoes, stir in goat cheese,
then pour sauce over and mix. Serve immediately, preferably with either
bread or tortillas to wipe up the last of the sauce. (Kim and I almost
fought over it...)
Note:
-----
This is *quite* hot, but awfully good. The achiote, lime juice, and
habanero work very nicely together, and the potatoes offset a lot of the
fire. We served it with something simple like either a roasted chicken
or shark in lime juice (see yesterday's recipe for tiburon a la
margarita).
