- 1 Tbsp. white sesame seeds
- 1/2 c. raisins
- 1/2 c. tomatoes seeded, peeled and minced
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon for the tortillas
- 3/4 c. masa
- 1/2 c. water

Инструкции
- 1. Re-hydrate the dry, minced chilies in warm water (sufficient to cover) for about 20 min.
- 2. In a blender combine the remaining ingredients for the mole (white sesame seeds, raisins, tomatoes, cinnamon) and add in the re-hydrated chilies with 1 Tbsp. of the re-hydration water from each. Puree till the contents of the blender are a thick paste. Put this in a bowl and set aside. This is the mole sauce.
- 3. Prepare the tortillas. In a bowl, mix the masa, water and mango puree.
- Blend together thoroughly. Spoon 6 mounds of this mix onto wax paper, each spoonful about the size of a golf ball. Round them out into balls and then flatten them with even pressure to create them into flat circles about a quarter of an inch thick.
- 4. On a flat skillet or possibly a griddle on medium heat, place each flattened tortilla on the surface. There is no oil used in this step. Gently heat each tortilla through till the surfaces start to brown lightly. When each one is done, place it in a sealed container till needed.
- 5. For the meat, trim some of the excess fat from the beef, cube it and saute/fry in a skillet till it browns. Season with salt and pepper. Add in the minced mango and continue to saute/fry for 6-8 min.
- 6. Add in the mole sauce, thoroughly combining it with the meat and mango.
- Slowly add in the consumme and stir to combine. Keep simmering till the meat and mole mix is thick. Pour onto a serving platter and sprinkle with more white sesame seeds and garnish with cilantro.
- 7. Serve the hot tortillas on the side so each diner can use one to wrap around the meat.
- Serves 6 as a small entree.
- Iron Chef Notes:For some reason, I always associate mole sauce with chocolate flavor.
- However, the challenger included no chocolate in this dish. Upon further research, I found which my preconception was incorrect. Mole refers to the smoked and dry chili peppers which are used. Yes, many moles use chocolate, but hardly all of them.
- Making your own tortillas certainly sounds like fun, but it takes a little practice. There's no reason you cannot find a good, corn tortilla in your own neighborhood market and use which, instead.
