Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 4 pieces Dried Guajillo chilies, deseeded
  • 2 pieces Dried Ancho chilies, deseeded
  • 1 lb Oyster mushrooms, shredded
  • 2 cans (15oz) White hominy, rinsed and drained
  • 6 cups Vegetable broth
  • 1 medium White onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Dried Mexican oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 set Radishes, lime wedges, and cabbage for garnish(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast the dried guajillo and ancho chilies in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Soak the toasted chilies in 1 cup of boiling water for 15 minutes, then blend with the soaking liquid until smooth to create the red sauce.

  3. 3

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil and sauté the onions and mushrooms until the mushrooms are browned and moisture has evaporated.

  4. 4

    Add the minced garlic, oregano, and cumin to the pot, stirring for 1 minute until aromatic.

  5. 5

    Strain the blended chili sauce through a fine-mesh sieve directly into the pot to remove any skin or seeds.

  6. 6

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add the hominy, bringing the mixture to a boil.

  7. 7

    Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the hominy to soften.

  8. 8

    Season with salt to taste and serve hot with fresh radishes, shredded cabbage, and a squeeze of lime.
