6-8 green chiles chopped
1 clove carlic chopped
1 t spoon salt
1/8 t spoon pepper
1 small can tomatoes

Add chiles, garlic & water & seasonings (salt & pepper).
After simmering 1 hr. add tomatoes & more water, if needed.
Serve over steamed rice.
(You may want to double this.)"
The only time I cooked this - at a competition 10 or 11 years ago - I did double the recipe, except for the chiles. I don't remember what kind of chiles my mother used. I used jalapeños but thought they might be too hot for some of the people judging the competition. Also, I added 1/2 pound of quartered tomatillos when I added the chiles. Instead of rice, I served with flour tortillas.
Now, I just wish I could find my Mother's recipes for pinapple fritters and twice-cooked ginger pork.
