INGREDIENTS

4 Ancho chiles, stems seeds
and veins removed
3/4 c Chicken stock or water, to 2
cups
2 Whole cloves
4 Garlic cloves, coarsely
chopped
1 T Cumin seeds
Coarse salt, to taste
3 T Olive oil or butter
6 oz Vermicelli nests
1/3 c Finely-grated Queso Anejo
cheese
Green onion, sliced on the
bias
Avocado slices
Quartered limes

INSTRUCTIONS

In a nonreactive medium saucepan, cover the chiles with water and
simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let soak until soft, 5
more minutes. Drain, setting aside 1/2 cup of the chile liquid. Pour
1/4 cup of the chicken stock into a blender, add the cloves, garlic
and cumin seeds and blend until smooth. Season with salt. Add 1/2 cup
more of the stock, the 1/2 cup chile liquid and the drained chiles, a
few at a time, and blend until smooth. Add more stock if necessary.
Heat the oil in a large heavy saucepan. Add the pasta and fry turning
until it has turned a deep golden color, about 3 minutes (keep nests
intact). Strain off excess oil. Add the blended sauce to the pasta in
the skillet and fry over moderate heat for about 3 minutes, scraping
the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking. Cover and cook over low
heat, adding the remaining stock a little at a time to prevent
sticking, until the pasta is just cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes.
Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with the cheese and green
onion slices. Serve with the avocado slices and lime. This recipe
yields 4 servings.  Recipe Source: TOO HOT TAMALES with Susan Feniger
