CALDILLO

Steps:

• Brown the meat in a large (3 quart) saucepan over medium heat.
• Add potatoes and cook until the potatoes turn brown on the edges, about 10 minutes.
• Add 1/2 cup onion, garlic and seasonings, cook for 3 minutes.
• Add water and green chiles, cover and simmer on low heat until potatoes are tender, about 20-30 minutes.
• Put limes in a small bowl, cilantro in a small bowl, lettuce in a small bowl, and the leftover onion (if you stil have the 1/4 cup leftover)- use them like condiments or garnishes that your guests can put in their soup if they would like.
• This is just an option- since I now live in Texas, most of my Mexican friends use these condiments, and they really do enhance flavors and texture of soups like caldillo, posole, and menudo.
• Enjoy!
