Date: 09/26/96

Directions

: removed, seeded

2 ts ground cumin

1 ts ground coriander

1 ts ground Mexican oregano

2 TB corn oil

1 lg onion, finely diced

12 oz bottle Mexican beer

¾ c chicken stock

: Salt

: Lime juice

Cut kernels from corn cobs and set aside; you should have 2 cups of whole kernels. With the back of a knife, scrape down cobs to remove liquid and pulp. Reserve in a small bowl; you should have a ½ cup of corn puree.

Soak chilies in hot water to cover until soft. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. In a blender combine chilies, cumin, coriander, oregano and tortillas. Blend, adding just enough reserved chile liquid to make a thick paste. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in chile paste and fry for about 3 minutes, or until it thickens. Add onion, garlic and corn kernels and fry 2 minutes more.

Add corn puree, beer and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 40 minutes, or until mixture is thick and flavorful. Season to taste with salt and lime juice
