Hey Momo, What's For Supper?

 

It's an enchilada in a bowl, a recipe I developed myself.

Tabletop Homestead Posole

(ingredients with ** were produced here, those with * can be produced here)

**1 pound pork loin

* 1 large or 2 medium onions

**2 pints chile verde

* 2 pints canned tomatoes

* 1 tablespoon chopped garlic

1 tablespoon cumin

* 1 tablespoon dried oregano

* 1 tablespoon paprika

**1 pint canned pinto beans

**1 cup dried hominy

1/2 cup brown rice

cooking oil or *lard

water

salt

Cut pork loin into small cubes and brown well in a small amount of oil or lard.  Add chopped onions and salt to taste (helps sweeten and soften the onions).  Saute until onions are soft and beginning to brown a bit.  Add chopped garlic and saute another minute or so.  Deglaze the pan with about 1/4 cup water, scraping up all the browned bits.  Add chile verde, tomatoes, beans, spices, hominy and rice.  Add water to thin to a soup consistence (it will thicken as the rice and hominy cook.)  Simmer 1 hour or until the pork is tender and the hominy is soft.  Serve with grated cheddar or *crumbled goat cheese.

Till next time, Blessings.
