Crispy Pork-Stuffed Anaheim Chiles

  1. Place pork in a large, heavy pot.
  2. Sprinkle with salt.
  3. Add water to cover.
  4. Bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce to a simmer.
  6. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pork is brown, about 1 1/2 hours (when water has evaporated, pork will brown in its fat).
  7. Set aside.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375F.
  9. Place chiles directly over the flame of a gas-stove burner on high heat.
  10. Roast, turning with tongs, until blackened all over.
  11. (Alternatively, broil chiles on a baking sheet, turning, until skin has charred.)
  12. Transfer chiles to a large bowl, and cover immediately with plastic wrap.
  13. Set aside to steam, about 15 minutes.
  14. Peel chiles; discard skins.
  15. With stems intact, slit each chile lengthwise; carefully remove seeds and veins.
  16. Place, slit side up, on a baking sheet.
  17. Spread 2 tablespoons cheese in bottom of each chile, then fill with 1/3 cup pork.
  18. Sprinkle chiles with the remaining 2 cups cheese.
  19. Spoon 1 tablespoon tomatillo sauce over top of each chile.
  20. Bake 15 minutes.
  21. Garnish with cilantro; serve with tortillas and remaining tomatillo sauce.
  22. Put the tomatillos in a medium saucepan; cover with water by 1 inch.
  23. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
  24. Cook 4 minutes.
  25. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid.
  26. Process tomatillos, onion, jalapenos, cilantro, salt, and 1/4 cup liquid in a blender until a slightly chunky sauce forms, adding more liquid as needed.
  27. Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days.
