- Slice the tomatillo and both types of peppers in half, and remove stems. Seed the peppers and remove the white veins inside if if you do not want the chile verde to be very spicy. (See my note below about spice level). Do not seed the tomatillos.

- Immediately place peppers in a plastic bag and tie the bag. Allow them to steam for 5 minutes, and then peel off their outer layer of skin. (It should come off easily)

HATCH CHILE VERDE
Hubby and I are Hatch chile fanatics. We buy 50 pounds of roasted Hatch chiles when they are in season. We portion them out and freeze them so they are readily available. This chile verde does not call for tomatillos because I wanted the chiles to be the star of the recipe.

Steps:
- Place Hatch chiles directly on the grates of a gas stove. Cook over medium heat, flipping with tongs occasionally, until blackened and charred, about 5 minutes. Place in a sealed plastic bag and allow to cool, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Peel off charred skins, remove seeds, and cut 1/2 of the chiles into 1-inch squares. Set aside. Place remaining chiles in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add processed chiles to chopped chiles. Set aside.
- Combine pork cubes, water, and salt in a Dutch oven. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Uncover, raise heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring constantly until the water evaporates and the pork browns in its rendered fat, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove pork and set aside.
- Heat oil in the Dutch oven. Add onion; cook and stir until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add chiles, pork, chicken broth, canned tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pork cubes are fork-tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

EASY CHILI VERDE
I love chili verde. I order it whenever I can at restaurants, and figured out how to make an easy, tasty version at home. People have the option to eat the chili verde with a fork or in tortillas with a variety of toppings such as cheese, cilantro, minced onions or lime wedges. There are never leftovers at my house. -Julie Rowland, Salt Lake City, Utah
