  • For the mole: Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until they have a shiny tone. Incorporate the tomato and cook until it breaks down. Add the allspice, black pepper, cumin, thyme, oregano, cinnamon, bay leaf, Mole doña María® paste, and a little water to help soften all the ingredients; allow each ingredient to cook before adding the water. Cook for approximately 10 minutes.
  • Blend the previous ingredients and set aside until use.
  • For the meat: Cook the onion, head of garlic, meat, bouquet garni, and allspice in a pot with boiling water. Lower the temperature to medium, cover, and cook for 40 minutes. Remove the bouquet garni, onion, and garlic. Add the blended mole through a strainer, season with enough salt, and cook for 20 more minutes to integrate the flavors and concentrate the broth; it is not necessary to cover again.
  • Assemble the tacos with the tortillas and meat. Heat a skillet over medium heat and fry the birria tacos in vegetable oil for about 3 minutes.
  • Remove the golden birria tacos from the oil and remove excess fat.
  • Serve the golden birria tacos with Mole doña María®, cream, cheese, and onion. Accompany with broth.
