Mole Amarillo -- Mexican Yellow Sauce -- Yellow Mole Sauce image

Called simply (and fondly) "amarillo", this sauce is a specialty of the Central Valleys region of Oaxaca. This mole is particularly versatile-try it over chicken and potatoes, beef or as a sauce for tamales. Courtesy of Aaron Sanchez.

Time 40m

Yield 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 guajillo chilies, stemmed and seeded
1 ancho chili, stemmed and seeded
1 medium white onion, peeled and halved
4 garlic cloves, peeled
4 medium tomatillos, husked and rinsed
1 tomatoes, halved (either green or red tomatoes will do)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorn
5 whole cloves
2 tablespoons lard
2 tablespoons masa harina or 2 tablespoons cornmeal

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
  • In a dry cast-iron skillet or comal, toast the guajillo and ancho chiles over medium-low heat for 2 minutes, until fragrant; turn them and shake the pan so they don't scorch.
  • Put the toasted chiles in a bowl, cover with the boiling water, and let soak until softened and reconstituted, about 20 minutes.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat to get quite hot.
  • Rub the onion, garlic, tomatillos, and tomato with the oil.
  • Lay the vegetables in the hot pan and roast, turning occasionally, until soft and well charred on all sides, about 10 minutes.
  • Put the vegetables in a bowl to let them cool a bit.
  • Meanwhile, grind the peppercorns and cloves in a coffee grinder or spice mill.
  • Put everything together in a blender or food processor and puree in batches until completely smooth.
  • Melt the lard in a skillet over medium heat and pour in the puree.
  • Cook and stir for 5 minutes, until the mole deepens in color.
  • In a small bowl, mix the masa harina with 1/4 cup of warm water until smooth and lump-free.
  • Whisk into the sauce and continue to simmer for 5 more minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened and able to coat the back of a spoon.
