Ingredients:
Jim Vorheis
1 1/2 lb Tomatillos
4 To 5 chilies serranos (to taste)
1 Garlic clove, peeled and roughly chopped
1/4 cup Loosely packed, roughly chopped cilantro
2 tbsp Lard or safflower oil
3 tbsp Finely chopped white onion
Sea salt to taste
6 oz Chicharron, broken into squares abut 1 1/2 inches
Instructions:
Remove the husks from the tomate verde and rinse will. Put into a
saucepan with the fresh chilies, cover with water, and bring to a
simmer. Continue simmering until soft but not falling apart, about 10
minutes. Drain the tomate verde and transfer with the chilies and 1/4
cup of the cooking water to a blender. Add the garlic and cilantro
and blend until smooth.

Heat the lard in a frying pan, add the onion, and fry gently, without
browning, for 1 minute. Add the blended sauce and fry over high heat,
stirring from time to time, until reduced and thickened - about 7
minutes. Add salt to taste and the pieces of chicharron and continue
cooking over medium heat until the chicharron is just soft - about 5
minutes, depending on thickness and quality.

Serve with corn tortillas and a dollop of frijoles refritos.
