MEXICAN POZOLE



Mexican Pozole image

Provided by Molly Watson

Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Side Dish     Appetizer     Soup

Time 2h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds pork shoulder (or butt)
5 to 6 cups water (cool; or enough to cover)
3 dried red New Mexico chiles (or other large, mild, dried red chiles)
3 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons salt (plus more to taste)
6 cups cooked hominy (or canned)
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
Garnish: cilantro (chopped)
Garnish: scallion (chopped)
Garnish: radishes (chopped or sliced)
Garnish: green cabbage (finely sliced)
Optional: squeeze fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Cut the pork into chunks. Fairly big pieces are traditional, but if you prefer, cut the pork into bite-sized pieces.
  • Put the pork in a large pot and add enough cool water to cover it by about 2 inches (approximately 5 to 6 cups). Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam that forms in the pot.
  • Remove the stem and seeds from the chiles, and peel the garlic. Add the chiles, garlic, and salt to the pork.

  • After the pork has cooked, add the hominy and the Mexican oregano. Continue cooking at a simmer until the flavors blend and the pork is very tender, for another hour. Add additional water, if necessary, to keep the moisture at a good level, return the mixture to a boil and reduce back down to a simmer when needed. Add salt to taste.
  • Serve the pozole in deep bowls.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro, scallion, radish, and green cabbage. If you like, squeeze fresh lime juice on top. Enjoy.

SIMPLER POSOLE, NAVAJO (HOMINY PORK STEW)



Simpler Posole, Navajo (Hominy Pork Stew) image

There are several Posole recipes here, and this particular Navajo Posole can be found 2 or 3 places on the net as well as in Spirit of the Harvest: North American Indian Cooking. But me and my family have enjoyed this recipe so much that I wanted to be able to share this with others on RecipeZaar. We usually serve this with white flour tortilias. Hope you enjoy this as much as we do. As a note we use canned hominy since blue dried posole(dried whole hominy) is not easily available to us. We have also easily adapted this to a crockpot. This recipe is from Marilyn Yazzie, Navajo, Tsenjikini (honeycombed rock) mother's clan, Tachiinnii (Red runs into the water) Father's clan. She favors using only fresh chiles, and likes it hot. She uses lean pork and no salt, for health reasons. If you're not so sure about fiery southwestern foods, use only 1 jalapeno, or use only mild green chiles, instead of jalapenos.Prep time varies depending on whether or not dried hominy is used.
