      Title: Carne de Puerco con Chile Cerde
 Categories: Stews, Pork, Chilies
      Yield: 7 Servings

      3 lb Boneless pork
     48 oz Can tomatillos; drained,
           - crushed
     16 oz Can chopped green chilies *
      3 tb Hatch green chile powder **
      5 cl Garlic; crushed
      1 lg Onion; chopped
    3/4 c  Water
           Salt & Pepper

  Optional - your favorite fresh green chilies, chopped
  or sliced. Cilantro if you like it.

  * Ortega Mild is good - you want flavour, heat is
  a secondary consideration

  ** Available from www.nmcchile.com

  Slice up the pork and trim away most of the fat.  Dice
  both the lean meat and the fat into 1/2-inch cubes;
  set the diced fat aside.

  In a heavy pot over a hot flame, cook the lean pork
  with the water, stirring until the water is gone and
  the meat begins to brown.  Add onion & garlic, and
  stir constantly until the onion becomes transparent.

  Reduce heat to a simmer and add tomatillos & canned
  chilies (be *sure* to drain the tomatillos before
  crushing; the water they are packed in is too salty).

  Stir in the Hatch green chile powder.

  Cover the pot and simmer slowly for about an hour,
  stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  Meanwhile, render the diced pork fat into cracklings
  by sauteeing in a skillet over medium heat until the
  pieces are brown and crispy. Drain and salt the
  cracklings and set aside; save the lard for any other
  dish where you want some high-quality cholesterol
  stuff.

  After an hour the chile verde should be pretty juicy
  but not watery. Add a little water if itÆs too dry.

  Add salt & pepper to taste, and if you want it hotter,
  add your fresh chilies now. Cover and simmer again for
  at least half an hour. The longer the better.

  To serve, sprinkle with chopped cilantro (if used) and
  the cracklings. Serve with Spanish rice, tortillas,
  black beans, and ice-cold beer.

  Serves 6 or 8.
