| 1. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. | 2. In a dry cast-iron skillet or comal, toast the guajillo and ancho chiles over medium-low heat for 2 minutes, until fragrant; turn them and shake the pan so they don’t scorch. | 3. Put the toasted chiles in a bowl, cover with the boiling water, and let soak until softened and reconstituted, about 20 minutes. | 4. Return the skillet to medium-high heat to get quite hot. | 5. Rub the onion, garlic, tomatillos, and tomato with the oil. | 6. Lay the vegetables in the hot pan and roast, turning occasionally, until soft and well charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. | 7. Put the vegetables in a bowl to let them cool a bit. | 8. Meanwhile, grind the peppercorns and cloves in a coffee grinder or spice mill. | 9. Put everything together in a blender or food processor and puree in batches until completely smooth. | 10. Melt the lard in a skillet over medium heat and pour in the puree. | 11. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, until the mole deepens in color. | 12. In a small bowl, mix the masa harina with 1/4 cup of warm water until smooth and lump-free. | 13. Whisk into the sauce and continue to simmer for 5 more minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened and able to coat the back of a spoon. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
