Mexican food & drink
Mole Poblano is traditionally served on Cinco de Mayo and legend has it that the dish originates from Puebla. The story goes that two nuns were surprised by a visitor. Not being cooks they took a mortar and pestle. They ground together all the ingredients that they could find. Tomatoes, chocolate and chillies. Then they simmered the mix until it thickened into a sauce, now known as Mole.
