Quote (carlsonjok @ July 14 2007,18:50) | That is an odd recipe. Raisins? I've never seen that before. And no peppers? Strange. Our favorite mole recipe is actually on the South Beach Diet. I've tried it with the jarred mole that you can find at Hispanic groceries, but the South Beach is better.

Yeah, I added a serrano pepper to the mix since I was also perplexed by the lack of heat potential in this dish. I'm not looking for the fire-breathing diet that Louis and Steve et al. seem to favor, but Mexican food should have some pepper ingredients!
I can report that it was pretty good, and, like all moles, even better the second day as leftovers. It wasn't the best mole I ever had, but it was far from the worst. Sometime I'll try that South Beach recipe as well, and see how it compares.
