Chalupa
Ingredients
1 lb pinto beans
3 lb pork roast
7 cup water
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp salt
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
4 oz green chili peppers, chopped (one c, an)
Preparation
Put all ingredients in a dutch oven, an electric crockery cooker, or a
heavy kettle. Cover and simmer about 5 hours, or until the roast falls
apart and the beans are done. Uncover and cook about 1/2 hour, until
the desired thickness is achieved.
NOTES:
* A Mexican meat and bean dish, similar to chili -- I got this
recipe from "A Primer on Bean Cookery" by the California Dry Bean
Advisory Board. While not a true chili, chalupa is a Mexican-American
favorite for a hearty lunch or supper. It may be made ahead and
reheated, and it freezes well.
* Chili powder is a mixture of spices, consisting mainly of ground
dried chili peppers. This recipe may be served with corn chips and
condiments (including chopped tomato, chopped avocado, chopped onion,
shredded lettuce, grated cheddar cheese and hot sauce).
: Difficulty: Easy.
: Time: 5 minutes preparation, 5-6 hours cooking.
