Ingredients
- 8 to 12 small red-skinned new potatoes
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1 med yellow onion, finely chopped

2 Melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and green onions and cook until limp. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes. Stir in the cream, cilantro, oregano, cumin, and salt and pepper to taste. While stirring, slowly add the cheese and cook until the cheese is melted.

Okay, this is a lot better than I expected. The sauce could be used in many dishes. I think I will try this with fish. If you thinned it out, I sure it would compliment very well. Thanks Elise!
