Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds beef
2 cloves garlic
1 small onion
2 chayote squash
1/2 pound string beans
4 guajillo chiles (dried)
1 leaf hierba santa or avocado leaf
1 medium tomato
20 tomatillos
10 cominos
1/2 cup masa
2 Tbsp. lard or butter
Instructions:
Cook the meat with water, garlic, onion, and salt to taste. When the meat is done add the peeled and chopped squash and the beans. Soak the chiles for three hours in cold water, remove the seeds and skins and chop. Toast the hierba santa leaf and then combine with the tomato, tomatillos and cominos in a food processor and liquefy. Fry the chopped chiles in a half tablespoon of lard or butter, then add the tomatillo mixture. Finally add the meat, beans, squash, and the beef broth.
Combine the masa with a teaspoon of lard or butter and some salt. Knead well and form into small balls. When the liquid is boiling add the balls one at a time.
