Earthy, intense and rich Mole (pronounced moh-leh) is most representative of Mexican cuisine. The word Mole derives from the language of the Aztecs, molli (or mulli), which just means ?sauce,? Mole is generally a thick, dense sauce, ranging from red to green to black, and should never be runny. There are hundreds of variations of mole in Mexico, depending on where you are and the season.
This basic (not exactly authentic, but delicious all the same) mole sauce is made by toasting and combining some dried chillies (guajillo chillies, Kashmiri red chillies, ancho chillies) spices (cinnamon, anise, coriander, cayenne, cardamom), dark chocolate, herbs (oregano, thyme and cilantro), thickeners (old bread, nuts or/and seeds) and homemade broth. Serve it as a main course with savoury, rich, crunchy pork belly, melt-in-mouth pulled pork and juicy, tender chicken or spoon over tacos and enchiladas. Once you?ve made the sauce, you can use it for practically anything. Pork belly is a staple at our dinner table and paired with the rich, complex mole sauce is literally heaven on earth.
