- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 jalapeno chiles, stemmed, seeded, and minced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce

Mise en place.
Brown half the pork on all sides over medium-high heat.
Soften onions over medium heat.
Stir in jalapenos, garlic, chipotle, and oregano and cook until fragrant.
Stir in flour and cook for one minute. Whisk in wine, scrape up fond, and reduce for 1 minute.

Bring to high pressure. Naturally release pressure after 30 minutes.
Stir in hominy and season.
I'm pretty sure I've made some version of pozole in the past though that must've been before I started this blog. I remember not thinking much of the dish.
But from the moment I ladled out this unctuous dish, I knew I had a winner. Brilliant flavor from such a simple ingredients list again.
