GREEN CHILE PORK TAMALE FILLING
I wanted green chile pork tamales and couldn't find a recipe, so I made up my own. This filling is mild and delicious! (Time does not include making it into tamales.)

Steps:
- In a large, heavy pot heat the oil (I use my Le Cruset). Saute the onion until just translucent, then add the minced garlic and saute another few minutes until garlic softens.
- Add the green chiles and saute, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes, allowing most of the moisture from the chiles to evaporate.
- Add the ground pork and stir well to combine. Saute until pork is fully cooked and slightly browned, about 10-14 minutes. Add the ancho powder, cumin, and oregano, stirring to coat the mixture well.
- Fold in the cotija cheese and combine well. Use as tamale filling and enjoy! Top your tamales with your favorite tamale sauce (I use my Rich and Delicious Enchilada Sauce recipe for tamales, absolutely wonderful stuff).
- Also works very well as an enchilada filling. Makes about 3-4 cups filling.

k-m@yahoo.comThe filling was delicious, but the masa was a little too thick for my liking. I would probably use a different recipe for the masa next time.

m_noor@gmail.comThese tamales were a little dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would add more liquid to the masa next time.

kumarp3@gmail.comThe recipe was easy to follow and the tamales turned out great. I used a combination of ground pork and ground beef, and I added some extra green chiles for a little more heat. My family loved them!
