Puerco Enchilado Tacos

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 small white onion, roughly chopped
• Salt
• 8 dried guajillo chile peppers, seeded
• 1 small Roma tomato, quartered
• 1 bay leaf
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 russet potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 1/2 pounds boneless pork butt, cut into 1-inch cubes
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1 1/2 cups beef broth
• Corn tortillas, warmed, for serving
• Fresh cilantro and diced white onion and radishes, for topping

1. Make the salsa: Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat.
2. Add the garlic, onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes.
3. Add the chiles, tomato, 2 cups water and the bay leaf.
4. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium; simmer until the chiles are soft and tender, about 20 minutes.
5. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
6. Remove the bay leaf, then transfer the vegetables and about 1 cup cooking liquid to a blender and puree until smooth, adding more cooking liquid if necessary.
7. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve back into the pan; cook until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
8. Set aside.
9. Make the tacos: Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy saute pan (do not use a nonstick pan) over medium-high heat.
10. Add the potato and saute until golden, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to a bowl.
11. Add the pork to the pan, season with pepper and sear until browned, about 3 minutes per side.
12. Add the broth and bring to a simmer.
13. Add 1 cup of the prepared salsa and return the potato to the pan; cover and simmer until the pork is fork-tender, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
14. Serve in tortillas; top with more salsa, cilantro, onion and radishes.
