Pursuance have a slightly acidic-salty flavor, they are eaten raw in salads or stewed. This time we will show you how to make some classic pursuance in green sauce.

Ingredients to make Verdolagas in green sauce:

• 1 kilogram of chicken in pieces
• 1 kilogram of Pursuance
• 500 grams of green tomato
• 3 units of Cuaresmeño peppers
• 3 units of allspice
• 3 units of cloves
• 100 grams of salt
• 2 liters of water
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 100 grams of onion

How to make Verdolagas in green sauce:

1

We prepare all our ingredients. We wash the chicken; we remove the skin if we want to remove the fat. We remove the roots and rubbish that they may contain from the pursuance, wash and disinfect them.

2

Cook the chicken with enough water to cover it. When it starts to boil, remove the foam that forms on the surface. Let it cook for 30 minutes, or until the chicken softens. Once cooked, remove the chicken pieces.

Trick: We can also make pursuance with pork ribs.

3

We wash the tomato and chili. We cook them in water together with a piece of onion and a clove of garlic.

4

We grind the tomato and chili to prepare the green sauce in which we will stew the pursuance. We are going to let this sauce cook for 10 minutes.

Trick: We can also cook pursuance in red sauce.

5

Once the green sauce was cooked, we added the pursuance and added the chicken broth.

6

We grind the pepper and the cloves in a mortar, add it to the pursuance in green sauce, let it cook and add salt to taste. Return the chicken pieces to the stew and let them simmer together for about 5 minutes.

7

We serve the pursuance in green sauce accompanied by pork beans or white rice.

Tip: If you are a vegetarian, omit the meat and prepare the pursuance only with the sauce of your choice.
