  • Toast the onion, garlic, tomatoes, and tomatillos on a griddle until very soft.
  • Blend the onion, garlic, tomato, and tomatillo until a very homogeneous and lump-free mixture is obtained. Set aside.
  • Heat a clay or tin pot with the lard, fry the plantain, tortilla, bread, add the sesame seeds, peanuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, raisins, add the cloves, allspice, cinnamon, cumin, nutmeg. Add thyme, oregano, marjoram, and bay leaf. Cool the mixture and blend everything very well with the help of chicken broth. Set aside.
  • Heat more lard over high heat, fry the chili paste and the ground nuts, cook for 15 minutes.
  • Add the mixture of tomatoes, tomatillos, garlic, and onion. Add the chocolate until it melts and the avocado leaves. Add sugar and coarse salt. If necessary, add a little more chicken broth until it begins to release the fat.
