Papa a la Huancaina (Cheesy Peruvian Potatoes)

225 grams Cream Cheese (one brick)
5 Aji amarillos (yellow peruvian peppers, I had to get them from Jenna)
6 soda crackers
1/4 C vegetable oil
1/4 C evaporated milk
1 hard boiled egg
Potatoes, boiled, peeled, sliced
Hard boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
lettuce and kalamata olives to garnish

Cut and wash peppers, remove seeds and veins. In a blender add peppers,milk, oil. Blend well. Add crackers and hard boiled egg. Add cream cheese a little at a time. Consistency should be creamy, not too runny. Add more milk if too thick. If too thin add more cream cheese. Salt to taste. Serve over sliced potatoes and eggs on a bed of lettuce, garnished with Kalamata olives. (I forgot to get my olives out!!)
