Menudo

Ingredients

• 1 pound beef tripe, cut into small squares
• 3 fresh cloves garlic, minced
• 3 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 cup red chile powder
• 2 teaspoons oregano leaves
• 1 tablespoons coarse black pepper
• 1 teaspoons cumin powder
• 1/2 small onion chopped
• 1 small can hominy, yellow or white

Directions

Place beef tripe into a pot of boiling water, just enough to cover the tripe. Add garlic and onions and salt. Cover and cook for about 1 hour. When tripe is tender add the remaining ingredients including the hominy and cook about 15 or 20 minutes longer. Add more salt if needed. This is a spicy dish and it goes well with cilantro and a twist of lime. Corn tortillas are a good compliment.
