Cutzamala version
At Cutzamala in Madrid, we prepare our pork in green salsa with pork shoulder and ribs, slowly cooked in a vibrant sauce made from tomatillos and poblano chile strips. The result is a tender and flavorful stew where the fresh acidity of the tomatillo meets the mild and aromatic character of the poblano pepper.
One of the great everyday classics of Mexican home cooking.
