SALSA VERDE PORK
Quick prep work leads to succulent, delicious, and exceptionally easy pork for enchiladas, tamales, or burritos or even to eat all by itself! We use this pork in all sorts of things, but my husband's favorite way is simply right out of the pot. I can't trust him to do the shredding, because too much ends up in his mouth. This pork keeps well and gets even better after a day or two.

Steps:
- Cook onion and garlic in oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring, until golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients except pork, lavash, and coleslaw and simmer, covered, 10 minutes. Add pork and simmer, covered, turning occasionally, until tender, about 45 minutes.
- Transfer pork with tongs to a cutting board. Purée cooking liquid in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids) and return to pot. When pork is cool enough to handle, shred lengthwise with your fingers or 2 forks and add to sauce. Simmer, stirring, just until pork is heated through.
- Divide shredded pork among pieces of lavash and top with some coleslaw, then wrap lavash around to form a cone.
