'Weeknight' mole poblano with pork tenderloin and limey lima beans

[@valerudy1490]

Adam, when my mom makes mole, she literally opens up the cabinets, pulls whatever she has that’s spicy, nutty, sweet, and starchy. Toast what she can, fries the rest together... and out comes and amazing mole. This video was not the traditional way of making mole, but it was authentic. Mexican cuisine may have deep roots, but humility and ingenuity are what pour through its veins. I applaud this video.

What a nice comment, I'm white but my best friend was Mexican so I hung around his family a lot. His mom didn't speak English, and I can confirm that I don't think she ever knew EXACTLY what she was going to be using until it was done. Best food I've ever eaten.

[@german_saucedo]

Hello Adam. Somebody from Mexico here. I really liked your recipe and think it’s a great way of making “mole”, especially if it gets you a similar flavor. I just wanted to say that the use of seeds in mole is NOT a result of African influence in our food. The natives used seeds in mole long before the Europeans and Africans got here. The place where this started is Oaxaca where they made diverse moles from many seeds. Hope you read this and thanks for making it!

I think he was specifically talking about the use of peanut, so not sure if that still holds up.

[@David-ol6fw]

@@jaminwaite3867 The Spanish word for peanut is "cacahuate" or "cacahuete". In either case, both words are derivatives of "cacahuatl", a Nahuatl word. I have to wonder how Africans influenced this dish when the use of peanuts in Mesoamerica predates their arrival to the Americas.

[@kenm.2793]

@@David-ol6fwi would think possibly due to the use of peanuts post-columbian exchange supplanting the use of groundnuts and other nuts in West African cuisines

I think this is a very friendly way of approaching mole, not sure if you can reach the depth and complexity of it with how quickly it's made but it for sure looks delicious.

This is by far my new favorite channel on KZbin. It’s so crazy to think that when I lived in Macon back in the late ‘90s and early 2000’s, finding some of the more exotic foods and ingredients was nearly impossible. You had the farmer’s market and Kroger...and that was it! Lol. When I went vegan for the first time in 1999, I was utterly dumbfounded at the lack of diversity at Kroger. Things like edamame or tempeh, for example, were either non-existent or always out of stock. It’s so cool to see how Macon has experienced this sort of renaissance in the last decade. I travelled there a couple of years ago for a blind date and I was really impressed at all of the new restaurants downtown. Back when I lived on Cherry St, we had the Rookery, Liz Reed’s, the Hummingbird (and that was new back then), and Tic Toc Room...pretty much everything else downtown was vacant.

The normal recommendation is to not use toasted sesame oil for cooking/frying as it can go rancid (so it's normally used as a topping/dressing for ramen/salads/etc). Adam, I see you used it to fry the lima beans. Is this ok because the beans weren't on the heat too long? Or would you recommend normal (non toasted) sesame oil?

[@theyreMineralsMarie]

All of Korean would disagree with the assertion that cooking sesame oil makes it rancid. If anything is mellows the flavor, but definitely doesn't make it taste rancid. It has a pretty low smoke point so if you burn it then it'll taste bad. But if it's only used in something soupy or saucy, you can cook it all day.

[@bicarbsoda5874]

Oil going racid is really only a problem if you're reusing your oil. Its pretty hard to make oil go racid with a single use. Chefs regularly reuse their oil which is how the myth started. Adam has a whole video on oils where he talks about this, I would recommend it.

I always like how your make these recipes more accessible

I ate an hour ago. You just made me hungry again.

As a mexican I am conflicted. On one hand this recipe is extremely simple and will bring more people to my culture's cuisine. On the other it's so simplified that I would struggle to call it mole. I think it has been simplified too much. If I had to change a step I would say hydrating your own chiles is the first logical step. Throwing them in a blender would create a much better base. I would love to see a mole 2.0 video like you make the NY pizza videos

Adam, any videos on efficient meal prepping planned for the future?

When you can't travel, cook! That's the motto I live by. Glad I'm not the only one 😉 Thanks Adam, this looks delish 😋

In the past two months I've 1) discovered this channel, 2) discovered Adam went to the same high school as my brother, and 3) discovered that one of his favorite restaurants was the place I ate at 2 months ago after my first Kentucky Derby visit. (And yes, Mayan Cafe was awesome)

[@cipherbunz2612]

whoa, I never heard of a savory sauce with peanut butter and chocolate in it!! I gotta try this :D

OMG thank you so much Adam ! i just made a porkloin mole it'struly pretty good! i just follow your recipe It's very easy and really tasty😌 this recipe is a keeper

[@Rachara]

I can confirm that this meal also works on weekends. Also I can confirm that it is delicious. That sauce didn't come together for me until I added the fruit preserves at the end. It went from "maybe I did something wrong" to "this one's getting added to the recipe book."

Thanks Adam for posting so frequently 😁👌🏻
