Ingredients
Preparation
Boil 1 cup of water. Put the chilies in a bowl, cover with the boiling water, and soak 20 minutes. Reserve the soaking liquid. Stem and seed the chilies. In a blender or food processor, pur?e them with the reserved soaking liquid. In a large pot, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Add about a third of the pork. Brown well on all sides, about 8 minutes, and remove. Brown the remaining meat in 2 more batches, adding oil if needed. Return the pork to the pot with any accumulated juice. Stir in the chili pur?e, the hominy, and remaining quart of water, garlic, cumin, oregano and salt. Bring to a simmer over moderately high heat; reduce the heat and cook at a bare simmer, partially covered, until meat is falling apart tender, about 3 hours. Serve topped with the red onion and cilantro leaves.
