    Mexican Mole Poblano

    By Katie at benourishd.co.uk

    Traditional mole (pronounced Mol-ay) involves up to 30 ingredients and hours and hours of cooking. But panic not, this is definitely a less elaborate version than that! And it’s just as good as, if not better than, any of the moles I’ve had out and about. I think this is one of the best things I’ve ever cooked. Bold statement I know, but true!

    Ingredients

    Serves 1-2

    • 1 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 red onion, finely chopped
    • 1 small cinnamon stick
    • 2 dried chipotle chillies
    • 1 tsp ground cumin
    • 3-4 sprigs fresh thyme
    • 4-5 cloves
    • 1 can chopped tomatoes
    • 3-4 ladles chicken stock
    • ½ lime
    • 300g cooked and pulled chicken meat
    • 1 tsp muscovado sugar
    • 50g Lindt Excellence 99% dark chocolate

    Method

    1. On a gentle heat, warm the olive oil and fry the onion until soft. Then add the cinnamon, chipotle, cumin, thyme and cloves. Cook it for around 5 minutes on the same low heat. Turn the temperature up and add the tomatoes and chicken stock. Bring it to a simmer, then cover.
    2. After 30 minutes, add in the juice of half a lime, the muscovado sugar and the chicken, and cover it again. After another 30 minutes, stir in the chocolate and sugar. If it has reduced down too much, add another ladle of stock or water and cover.
    3. After another 30 minutes, your incredible Mole Poblano is almost ready. The final step is to remove the cinnamon stick, thyme sprigs and the chillies. As lovely and smoky as chipotle chillies are, you probably don’t want to bite into one!
    4. Serve with corn tortillas, guacamole, coriander, sour cream and very hot sauce.
