Heart Healthy: Ranch-Style Mole
A plant-based adaptation of Doña Ángela's Mole de Rancho from De Mi Rancho A Tu Cocina. This traditional Mexican ranch-style mole brings together three varieties of dried chillies — negro, mulato, and pasilla — with tomatillos, toasted sesame seeds, warm spices, and a corn tortilla thickener to create a dark, complex, glossy sauce. King oyster mushroom strips and black beans replace the chicken, simmered directly in the mole for a hearty, satisfying main course. Heart-healthy preparation uses dry-toasting and minimal oil, with dates replacing refined sugar and unsweetened cacao adding depth. Serve with warm corn tortillas.
