There’s a recipe with pork, chiles rayados and tomatillos.
You fry the pork meanwhile you’re boiling the tomatillos along with the rayados. Once they’re soft you blend them and pour them on the fried pork and keep cook the whole thing.
Add salt to taste and you can use cumin, and you can add garlic and onion to taste before you blend the tomatillos and then pour a pinch or two of dried oregano.
“Chile Rayado means ‘striped chile’ due to the naturally occurring light-colored ridges. It is a member of the jalapeño family *although it is much hotter than a typical jalapeño*. The town of La Misión in the state of Hidalgo is the sole region where chiles rayados are grown.”
*Ingredients:*
* 4 Roma tomatoes quartered plum * 2 Rayado chiles * 1/4 small white onion * 2 cloves of garlic, peeled * 4 sprigs of cilantro * 1/4-cup water * salt to taste
*Directions:*
1. Toast the Rayado chiles in a hot pan *for 10 seconds a side.* 2. Remove the seeds and stems from the chiles. 3. Add all of the ingredients to the blender jar, except the water. 4. Then add 1/4-cup water. 5. Blend until just smooth. Do **not** over blend. 6. Add the mixture to a saucepan. 7. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for *20* minutes. 8. Salt to taste.
