Posole & Sausages

Directions

CUT EACH SAUSAGE INTO 4 PIECES.

Place in a 3-quart pot, place over medium heat on the stove and cook, 5 minutes.

Pour off and discard fat and reserve the sausages on a plate.

Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes, or until the onion softens.

Halve tomatoes cross- wise, lay each half cut side down and cut each half into 6ths.

Add the tomatoes and tomato paste to the pot and cook, stirring, 2 minutes.

Add the hominy, oregano, salt, pepper and hominy water.

Cover, raise heat to high, and bring to a boil.

Lower heat to medium and simmer 20 minutes. When it’s time to get dinner on the table, replace the sausages in the pot and cook 7 minutes.

Remove from the heat and add the parsley.

Divide the ingredients between 4 soup bowls and garnish with lime slices.

Serve with warm tortillas instead of bread.
