Instructions to make Mike's Easy Chile Verde Sauce:
Chop all vegetables. Chop potatoes and [additional] cilantro and set to side. Place potatoes in cool water for later use.
Mix everything together [except 1/4 green chile, additional cilantro and cumin and potatoes] and place in large pot. Simmer until pork is fall apart tender. Usually about 3+ hours. The chicken version is much quicker boiling wise.
25 minutes before sauce is ready, add your potatoes to the pot. After 15 minutes, add the remaining 1/4 of your green chile, additional cilantro and cumin and simmer with lid on for 10 more minutes or until potatoes are soft. Adding your additional chiles, cilantro and cumin last allows those flavors to slowly steep into your sauce without diluting their flavors.
This sauce is meant to have a slight viscosity or thickness to it. Enough to stick to a tortilla or a chip but be poured over burritos, etc. Your potatoes may have tightened your sauce up in the end but if not, mix your 2 tablespoons corn starch and 2 tablespoons water and add 1/2 of it to your simmering pot. Your sauce should thicken up within a minute at a higher simmer. If you'd like it even thicker, add the rest of your corn starch mixture.
If your Verde tastes as though it has too high of an acidic taste from your Tomatillos, just add 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda to your simmering sauce. Your sauce will foam up a bit but don't worry. It'll go right back down. Taste test and add 1/4 teaspoon more until the acid has subsided.
Serve immediately or allow to simmer on low on the stove for a few hours. Enjoy!
