Mole Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 dried pasilla peppers, stems and seeds removed
4 red dried New Mexico chiles, stems and seeds removed
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 medium tomatoes, peeled and seeds removed, chopped
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 corn tortilla, torn into pieces
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chicken broth
1 ounce bitter chocolate or 2 tablespoons baking cocoa

Preparation

Combine chiles, onion, garlic, tomatoes, 1 Tbsp sesame seeds, almonds, tortilla, raisins, cloves, cinnamon, and coriander. Puree small amounts of mixture in a blender until smooth.
Heat oil in a skillet and saute the puree for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add chicken broth and chocolate and cook over very low heat for 45 minutes. The resulting sauce will be quite thick.
