oil is hot, but not smoking, pan-fry until crisp, some 3 to 4
minutes on each face. In another saute pan, over medium heating, add the
odd 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the red onions and maize.
Season with salt and peppercorn. Saute for 4 proceedings. Season the shrimp

veins and seeds. Toast the chiles on a hot comale for a few seconds
on each face, pressing them down until the inside flesh turns an
unintelligible, tobacco gloss. Rinse the chiles in cold weewee, cover with hot
weewee, and set aside to soak for some 15 transactions. Put the tomatoes
into a blender jar and blend concisely. Rut 1 tablespoon of the lard
and fry the sesame seeds for a few seconds until a deep golden brownness.
Transfer with a slotted spoonful, draining them as much as potential, to
the blender jar; annex
