I slow cooked one 7lb pork loin and I've made
Barbecue Pork sandwiches and
Tamales. I have just enough pork left over to make the green chili for the tamales. Since my father-in-law is a vegetarian, I also make a vegetarian green chili.
Ingredients:12 chopped
roasted green chilies - the amount of seeds will create your level of heat OR 1lb can of whole green chilies
2 cups chopped tomatoes or roasted tomatoes
Half a finely chopped onion
4 cloves garlic
2 Tbs flour
2 cups of water - separated
Sea salt
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
If you like it really hot you can add a hot pepper or spices
Instructions:- Drizzle EVOO on bottom of large skillet and warm
- Add chopped onions and mashed garlic to the pan and warm until onions are soft
- Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies and saute until mixture is warmed through
- Add 1 1/2 cup of water and salt. Add any other spices you desire. Bring to a boil
- While mixture is coming to a boil put the remaining half cup of water in a glass. Use HOT water. Add flour to water and stir until dissolved
- Add flour water to the boiling mixture and reduce heat
- Simmer for 5 minutes stirring constantly. Green chili will start to thicken
- For Pork Green Chili pour desired amount of green chili over left over pork
- Simmer both pots for 30 minutes
ENJOY over
tamales!
