CHILE VERDE 
1 1/2 to 3 lb. pork, diced
Oil for browning meat
1 green bell pepper, chopped
Canned green chiles, to taste
Fresh chiles to taste (I use a combination of jalapenos, serranos and anaheims)
2 or 3 onions, chopped
3 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
2 cans tomatoes
1/3 c. chopped parsley
1 c. plus or minus water
Salt to taste
2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. sugar

Brown meat lightly in oil. Add green pepper, chiles, onions and garlic, saute until soft but not brown.

Combine canned chiles, tomatoes, parsley, spices and water. Bring to boil. Add meat mixture. Cover and simmer AT LEAST 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove lid and simmer another 30 to 45 minutes, or until sauce is reduced and thickened. Salt to taste.
