PORK GREEN CHILE

A simple and, in my opinion, authentic version, this recipe comes down at least 3 or 4 generations of my family. You will know it's done when the sauce has a medium thickness. Remember, the longer it cooks, the better it will taste. You can serve smothered over burritos or with warm tortillas, beans and/or fried potatoes. Also delicious with fried eggs (Huevos rancheros). Substitute 4 or 5 chopped roasted chiles for green chiles and jalapenos if you prefer.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 ½ pounds cubed pork stew meat
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (4.5 ounce) can diced green chile peppers, drained
½ (3.5 ounce) can chopped jalapeno peppers
½ medium onion, chopped
5 tablespoons tomato sauce
3 ½ cups water
onion salt to taste
garlic salt to taste
salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:
