  • For the red sauce, while the corn grains are cooking, sauté the pasilla chiles, guajillo chiles, árbol chiles, with garlic, onion, and oregano in a pan with a bit of oil over medium heat, add the cup of Del Fuerte® Natural Purée and cook for 10 minutes over low heat. Then blend everything in the blender until the texture is smooth. Set aside to add to the pozole later.
  • Heat a skillet, preferably non-stick, over high heat with a bit of vegetable oil and sauté the oyster mushrooms and champignons in batches, in small amounts to achieve caramelization on all the mushrooms; season each time. Set aside.
  • In a pot, boil the corn with water and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, until the corn pops. Add the sauce you prepared, the mushrooms, and let cook for 10 more minutes; add more water if necessary and check the seasoning.
  • Serve the pozole accompanied by onion, oregano, radish, chili piquín, lettuce, and tostadas. Enjoy.
