I've never thought of using El Pato instead of tomato sauce. How clever of you!! I don't put peas & carrots in my Mexican rice, or my Asian fried rice either. I don't like the flavor & I feel like it's just an inexpensive way to stretch the dish. Thank you for the recipe!
Sorry to hear that. If it’s mushy it’s because of Two things. Either too much water or not enough cooking time. Now, this has happened to me in the past. So, if you are seeing bubbling in the rice, then for about 5 to 7 minutes more. You can check it after that. If it’s too wet still then cook for another 5 minutes. It all depends on how much water you have in the pan. Just try adding water 1/2 inch to an inch above the rice. The rice should be ready in 15 minutes. Practice makes perfect. Good luck!
If you’re making a small portion, you can use 1 cup of rice. Since you are out in the tomato sauce, the water my differ. The sauce is El Pato tomato sauce. You can use regular tomato sauce, but it won’t be spicy. When you add the water you want to make sure that the water is above the rice. So, that being said, after the sauce is put in you want to use about a 1 cup and a half, or you can use the same can of the tomato sauce. Then you want to fill the can 5 times. You want the water level to be about an inch above the rice.
That looks yummy! My mom and I would add cumin as well. Just found you suffering for more grt dishes and I must say this one brings memories home with mom. Mom has pass now for 6 yrs. But in the family we keep her spirit and grt dishes alive! Ty! And you’ve got a new fan! Happy cooking!
Extremely cruel recipe. Anyone who thinks eating the chopped up corpse of an animal that suffered horrific cruelty and was forced into a gas chamber before being hung up side down by their back legs to have their throats slashed open while still alive needs to really think about why they are paying for and causing such suffering and death of an innocent sentient being when they could easily choose something else to eat.
I see where you are coming from. You choose a way of living. It’s not wrong the way you choose to eat. I don’t believe they go in a gas chamber. That would have the gas absorb in the meat. That would not be good. Thank you for your input.
Joe, thank you for your reply. When victims are involved personal choice is not an option. Anyone that continues to take part in the horrific cruelty of factory farms and violent murder of sentient beings after seeing the suffering for themselves can only be described as an animal abuser. If you ever heard pigs screaming trying to escape the gas chamber you would never forget it. Please research this yourself,lots of live footage available free to watch,also, do a search for pigs U.S gas chambers. The pigs are forced into the gas chambers when they are 6 months old. All the suffering and fear they experienced before and while they were being violently murdered you ingest when you eat their tortured corpses. People are listening and learning from you,please do cruelty free recipes,no one has to suffer and die because of your food choices. I urge you to research the horrific suffering you are causing and paying for, once you know the facts you can't un-know it. Your decision to stop taking part or continue causing cruelty is entirely up to you of course. Meat on your plate represents horrific abuse and violence to a kind sentient being that did not want to die and did no harm to you. Unless you are in a survival situation there is no moral justification for taking someone's life.
Thank you I have been wondering how I could char poblanos because I also live in an apt and can not have a grill. I do have a gas stove but was hoping there was another way to char veggies. Again Thanks for this recipe
You overloaded your pot, so I’d wager you had more like boiled pork (no sear on your pork) and 0 seasoning on it to begin with!!!?? Not even salt or pepper??! Where’s the ancho chili power? The cumin? Mexican oregano? Cilantro, lime?Anything??! Water??! Chicken broth bro!! C’mon! Ok some salt at the end .. but still. To each their own I know.
Thanks for your in put. Just remember that it is made for those on a budget. Yes you are correct no seasoning before the chili. Don’t want it to be over salted. I do ask you to try cooking it my way and tell me what you think? Enjoy!
I would love to make this. You sure made it look (easy?) I know it isn't but you made it look that way. My ex sister in law used to make a variation of this. No heat. I like a LITTLE heat. So no jalapenos for me. Maybe some mild chilies. Thank you so much.
Looks delicious, Joe. I hope that you enjoyed that whole plate. I grew up in Southern California, so I had reliable sources for the best Mexican food around. but now that I've relocated to Pennsylvania, it's hard to find a good chile verde locally. I'm going to try this recipe. Thanks, Joe!
Just found your channel this morning and subscribed. I happened to purchase pork at the store this morning for making some version of green chili and I think this is the one I need to try--just need to go back for tomatillos and I'm all set. Look forward to checking out your other videos, and thanks for the recipe.
