3/4 C. Masa Harina®<br>1/2 to 1 T. salt, depending on taste
1/2 tsp. black pepper
3 lb. beef, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
3 T. vegetable oil
3 medium onions, chopped
6 large cloves garlic, minced
2 Serrano or jalapeño chiles, minced
1 dried chipotle chile pod
3 ancho chile pods
1 dried New Mexico chile pod
4 New Mexico chiles, roasted, peeled and seeded
6 C. beef broth
1 T. ground cumin
Remove stems, seeds, and veins from dried chiles. Place both dried and roasted chiles and 1 1/2 cups of broth in a saucepan. Boil 5 minutes, then steep 15 minutes.
Combine Masa Harina®, salt and pepper in a paper bag. Add meat to bag and shake to coat.
Place oil in a Dutch oven or heavy pot. Heat at high temperature until oil almost just starts to smoke. Add meat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Add onions, garlic and jalapeños or serranos. Cook and stir until soft.
Add 4 1/2 cups of beef broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer. Purée all the peppers and liquid in a food processor or blender. Add purée to meat and stir. Cover and simmer 2 to 3 hours, or until meat is tender.
Add cumin. Add salt to taste. If needed, thicken with additional Masa Harina® and a little water.
