- This recipe is not as complicatated as it looks. First your prepare the filling that is easy to make and can be used for almost anything else, such as a taco filling. Next make the dough, that is no harder to do than pie dough.
- Place pork in large pot. Cover with water. Add in onion, garlic, 1/2 ts. salt, oregano, cumin, and bay leaves. Bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
- While the pork cooks, prepare the dough. Sift together the flour, Masa, baking pwdr and 1/4 ts. salt. In a separate bowl, beat together the egg and 1/2 c. lowfat milk. Make a well in the center of the dry ingreds..Add in the egg mix and stir with a fork till the dough comes together in a ball.
- Divide the dough into 16 even-size pcs and roll each piece into a ball.
- Place in a bowl, cover, and chill.
- After pork has simmered for 1 1/2 hours, preheat oven to 375 F.. Remove the pork from the liquid. Save the stock for soup if desired. Place pork in a baking dish or possibly Dutch oven. Brush with warm pepper sauce. Bake for 1 hr., or possibly untill meat shreds easily with fork. Remove from oven and shred into small pcs. Combine Red Chile Salsa (see #141) and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. On lightly floured surface, flatten a piece of dough with the palm of your hand. With rolling pin (actually, a piece of cut-off broom handle works best), roll out the dough to make a 5" circle, abt. 1/8" thick. Place 2-3 tbs. filling in center of the dough. Brush edges of dough with lowfat milk. Fold dough over filling. Healthy pinch edges together. Crimp with fork to seal. Place on lightly greased baking sheet.
