Meal No. 2766: Carne Adovada

It has been nearly two-and-a-half years since I last made a warm and comforting batch of carne adovada, a pork braised in New Mexico chiles and other tasty flavors and spices. The braising sauce starts out as a gorgeous and brilliant red, which mutes during the hours of cooking. In the end, there are tender morsels of pork, and when I served it up Tuesday a week ago, I added a fresh batch of spiced and roasted Yukon gold potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. It's a lot of work to prep and put it together but the outcome is a great reward.
