Cuban Guajillo Pork Recipe

	Busmamawilliams / All my dishes 3 months ago This Cuban stewed pork is just so flavorful & rich. I don't really make it too much in the summer, but it's a wonderful cool weather dish. Serve with rice or warm nan or pita bread.Not hot with chiles (You could add hot pepper if you wish.)Also a great slow-cooker recipe.... More Prep:15m Cook:120m Servings:8	Busmamawill

Ingredients

1 and 1/2 pounds boneless, lean pork; cubed

4 or 5 dried guajillo chili peppers; soaked in 1 cup boiling water until soft

1 cup fresh cilantro; chopped

pork stock (you'll be making this when you poach the pork)

1 large onion

2 plum tomatoes

salt & pepper to taste

1 clove garlic

Directions

1) In a large pot place the pork cubes along with 5 cups hot water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 30 minutes.

2) Split the softened guajillo peppers & remove seeds.

3) In a skillet rubbed with a little oil, put the onion (cut in half) & the 2 tomatoes (leave whole). Roast in skillet, over medium flame, until vegetables are slightly charred-looking on all sides.

4) Place guajillo peppers, roasted onion (cubed), 1 clove garlic , 2/3 cup chopped cilantro & the roasted tomatoes in blender with enough of the pork stock (from poaching) to make blender 1/2 full. Blend well.

5) Drain remaining liquid off pork & reserve.

6) Put blender contents into pot with pork & bring to a boil. Put heat on low & simmer for 90 minutes, or until pork is very tender; adding more reserved pork stock if necessary. The sauce should be fairly thick; like stew.

7) Put in serving bowl & garnish with remaining cilantro.
