red chili peppers*
4 green chili peppers
1 onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons cumin seed
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Lightly toast red chili peppers and green chili peppers on a

boiling water and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain and blend in
a food processor,
adding just enough soaking liquid, to make a paste; set aside.
In a large skillet, saute chopped onion, crushed garlic cloves, and cumin seed
over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Add the chili pepper paste, chili
powder,
coriander, cinnamon, and pepper; saute for 5 minutes and set aside.
In a large kettle, brown ground turkey in oil. Add chopped tomatoes, chicken
broth, cider and chopped jalapenos. Add the vegetable mixture and bring to a
boil, reduce the heat, and simmer uncovered for 30-45 minutes. Just before
serving, stir in unsweetened baking cocoa. Garnish with chopped green
onions,
cilantro, and sour cream.
