Usually use pork and the way you prepare that has a lot to do with the flavor, so consider that as you go through the recipes. I boil it and then brown it in fat with a few spices like a bit of powdered garlic and salt. Add some cumin on a small side and see if you like that flavor. If so, use it in the prep of the pork and add some to the base.

AFA the rest, it's onions, garlic cloves, anaheim chilies, jalapeno chilies and tomatillos, all roughly chopped. Salt to taste, of course. You need to run through a couple of batches to make adjustments.

If you want to thicken, make a rue out of white cheese. Jack cheese will do but the Mexicans have their Jalisco style cheese. You don't want a strong cheese flavor.

Anyway, no recipe as I cooked this as-I-went each time. Just look for a recipe that contains essentially what I said. Avoid fancy recipes, the Mexicans are not fancy.
