Help
We ate at a Peruvian restaurant that served a Habanero & Jalapeno Salsa with lime wedges.....
Does anyone know the name or have a recipe?

Sounds like the basic hot encebollado or ceviche sauce. In any case, it's simply called Ajàor Salsa de AjÃÂ. It's also screamingly easy to make.
2-3 Habaneros, seeds removed
3-5 Jalapeños (although I have a hard time believing they were Jalapeños, most likely they were actually an Ecuadorian/Peruvian pepper called AjàVerde)
The juice of 5-6 limes
1/4 of a red onion
1 tomato or (more authentically) 1 tamarillo, peeled and seeded
Start with 1 Habanero and 1 Jalapeño, and the rest of the ingredients, in the food processor or the blender, and pulse until smooth. Taste and then start adjusting the peppers until it's as hot as you want it to be.
Serve with lime wedges.
