Mole like Rosa had as a kid in the mountains near Oaxaca. Originally adapted from Sor Andrea de la Asunción from the Santa Rosa Convent.
1. In a large Dutch oven set over medium high heat, add 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
2. Once hot, in about 2 minutes, add the seeded chiles in 2 or 3 batches and saute, stirring often and being careful not to let them completely burn. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in a mixing bowl.
3. In the same oil, add chopped onion and garlic and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring, until they soften and release their aroma.
4. Stir in the almonds, peanuts, raisins and pumpkin seeds, and let them cook for 2-3 minutes.
5. Stir in the sesame seeds, reserved chile seeds, cloves, anise seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, cinnamon stick (or ground), ground allspice, thyme and marjoram. Stir frequently and let it all cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
6. Add the tortilla and bread pieces along with the tomatoes and tomatillos. Let it all cook for a couple minutes.
7. Incorporate the already sautéed chiles and pour in the chicken broth. Stir and once it comes to a simmer, add the chocolate pieces and the salt. Mix well and let it simmer for 12 to 15 minutes.
8. Turn off the heat, cover and let the mix rest for 1/2 hour, so the chiles can completely soften.
9. In batches, puree the mixture in the blender or food processor until smooth.
NOTE: You can store this mole, covered, in the refrigerator for up to a month or freeze it for up to a year.
10: When ready to eat, dilute a cup of mole w/ 1/2 cup of chicken broth in a saucepan and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve over cooked chicken or turkey and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
