Cooking Instructions

2 hours
  1. 1

    Cook the meat with just enough water to cover it, adding 1/2 onion chunk, salt, and bay leaves.

  2. 2

    Once the fat is released, remove the water and set aside. Keep the meat warm for two minutes, then remove the onion and bay leaves, take it out of the pot, and set aside. Add oil to the pot.

  3. 3

    Add the bacon and cook until browned.

  4. 4

    Add the onion and when it is translucent, add the garlic.

  5. 5

    Add the carrot, and after 5 minutes, add the pepper.

  6. 6

    Return only the meat, not the juice and fat. Blend the juice and fat with the tomatoes, adding it gradually by spoonfuls as needed to prevent drying out, as you add the fruits and nuts.

  7. 7

    Start adding the fruits and nuts one by one, mixing well before adding the next.

  8. 8

    Gradually.

  9. 9

    First, integrate one well, then the next.

  10. 10

    Add the wine.

  11. 11

    Once everything is incorporated, let it simmer for 15 minutes on low heat.

  12. 12

    Once done, place it in a container to cool, then refrigerate.

  13. 13

    To make the nogada sauce, blend the walnuts with their milk (if the milk tastes off, replace it), the cheeses, the crema, the cinnamon, and the sherry. Taste and, if desired, add half a teaspoon of sugar. This is optional. Refrigerate.

  14. 14

    Roast the peppers over a flame until well charred on all sides without burning them. They should be blackened but not ashy. Place them in a bag to sweat and cool. Then, wearing gloves, peel them and make a small cut to remove the seeds, washing them carefully.

  15. 15

    Warm the meat you will use to fill the warm pepper (I filled it as I served it), cover with the nogada sauce, and garnish with pomegranate seeds.

  16. 16

    Once the pepper is filled, you can batter it if desired.
