Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the grill to high. Place the green peppers on a baking tray and grill for 15 minutes, turning, until charred all over. Place in a bowl, cover and leave to steam for 5 minutes, then peel, deseed and roughly chop.

  2. 2

    Blend the roasted peppers with the tomatillos and a ladleful of stock until smooth.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil in a large pot. Fry the diced onion for 5 minutes. Add garlic, cumin and oregano and cook for 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in the green blended sauce and cook for 5 minutes, stirring.

  5. 5

    Add the remaining stock, drained hominy and chickpeas. Simmer for 20 minutes.

  6. 6

    Season and serve in bowls with lime wedges, shredded cabbage and warm tortillas.
