A savory green chili sauce for green chili enchiladas. Flavors of New Mexico and the Southwest US.

Combine first 5 ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend or process til smooth.
Pour into a non-reactive saucepan and add stock, sugar and pepper to taste.
The heat in this recipe all depends on how strong or mild your chili peppers are. If they are too hot add a bit of sugar. If they aren't hot enough add a jalepeno pepper or habenero pepper.
Bring to boil over high heat, stirring often. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.

I guess it depends on how robust your cilantro is. Use the stem and all in this recipe. It comes out to about a Tablespoon of finely Chopped Cilantro. But definately not 2 "bunches" that would be overpowering for this recipe, where the green chili flavor is taking the front seat.
