INGREDIENTS
2
lbs pork roast (pre-diced pork works well for a faster preparation. Just brown with onions)
2 tbsp
cooking oil or 2 tablespoons lard or 2 tablespoons bacon grease
1
large chopped onion (not traditional) (optional)
1
head minced garlic (taste great, but also helps prevent heart burn)
6 tbsp
flour
1 15 ounce can
Tomatoes, drained
2 cups
diced green chilies (I use Big Jims, roasted, peeled and frozen by the bushel every fall)
3
large tomatillos, husks removed and coarsely chopped (optional)
2 tsp
jalapenos (optional)
5 cups
water (broth is not traditional, but I like the flavor better) or 5 cups chicken broth
2 tbsp
ground cumin (or to taste)
2 tbsp
ground chili powder (or to taste) (optional)
1 tsp
salt
8 oz
Mexican cheese blend
