PORK CHILE VERDE WITH RED CHILE SALSA



Pork Chile Verde with Red Chile Salsa image

Home turf: New Mexico Local flavor: Southwestern-style chili is all about the chiles (with an "e"), as in this pillar of regional cooking, chile verde. The chiles are green and mild (New Mexico's famous hatch chiles are perfect), and the meat is pork. Tangy tomatillos balance the chiles and coat the slow-cooked pork. To up the regional cred, serve it "Christmas" style-with a combo of green and red chiles. Make it a meal: Serve with warm corn tortillas, avocado and spinach salad with honey-lime vinaigrette, and a dark beer like Negra Modelo (Mexico, $8 per six-pack). If you can find it, use dried Mexican oregano in this recipe. It has a smoky flavor that dried Mediterranean oregano doesn't have. Look for it at Latin markets.

RED SALSA VERDE



Red Salsa Verde image

So I went to Homeland, a local grocer in Oklahoma, and the had these pre-prepared packages of vegetables. Unfortunately they had no label or directions but I saw green tomatos (sorry tomatillos), red tomatos, and jalapenos with a package of seasoning and said this must make "salsa verde," granted I didn't see the red tomatos.So I went home and made the best "salsa verde" I've ever tasted. I don't know the exact ingredients or measurements of the seasoning but I have an educated case.

Categories     Onions

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tomatillos
4 jalapenos
2 tomatoes
garlic salt
Mexican seasoning
onion (your preference)
olive oil

Steps:

  • Chop up the tomatillos, jalapenos (remove most of the seeds) and onion.
  • Saute them in olive oil with garlic salt and mexican seasoning.
  • chop up the tomatos and throw into the food processor with the sauted veggies, puree and eat.
  • If you want you to dip food in that's fine, it will be a little throat burning. For more heat leave the jalapeno seeds in or try a hotta peppa.
