Min's Easy Posole'
Serves 4
Hearty & Ready In 30 Minutes!
This makes a much less labor-intensive version of a traditional New Mexican dish. You'll find it on the tables of many a family after Christmas Eve Midnight Mass. We love ours with fresh, local tamales. Absolutely the best on any chilly night!
Instructions
- Heat the oil/bacon drippings until shimmering in a 4-5 quart pot.
- Sauté pork & onion until the pork is beginning to brown.
- Add water (scraping up any brown bits), posole', and Min's Marinade mix.
- Stir well and simmer until pork is tender.
- Ladle into bowls and savor!
Serves 4 as an accompaniment to tamales, enchiladas, or other main course.
NOTE:
You can sub hominy for Mexican posole' but in our opinion it is inferior for this recipe. The process for creating posole' is different than hominy, resulting in a chewier and easier to digest corn kernel.
