For the sauce, blend the chiles with the garlic, cumin, clove, and salt with a little of the soaking water from the chiles; it's important that it remains thick. In a bowl, mix the mushrooms with the chicken and the sauce; add epazote leaves, avocado leaves, and bay leaves. Marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Place a rack, water, and banana leaves in the pressure cooker for the base. Add the chicken and cover with a banana leaf. Cook in the pressure cooker for 30 minutes.
