    | 1. For the MOLE: Pull the stems off the chiles and shake out the seeds. | 2. Set the seeds aside. | 3. Wipe off the chiles with a damp paper towel. | 4. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a heavy skillet. | 5. Working in batches, add the chiles and fry until toasty but not dark brown. | 6. If they get too dark, they become bitter so watch carefully. | 7. Add more oil as needed. | 8. As chiles are done, transfer them to a bowl. | 9. Add a little oil to the chile-toasting pan and toast the bread slices in it. | 10. (You could also brush the slices with oil and toast them in a 350 degrees oven for 12 to 15 minutes.) Using the same pan, toast 1/4 cup reserved chile seeds until brown but not burned. | 11. Remove from pan and set aside. | 12. Add the sesame seeds to the pan and toast until browned. | 13. If more oil is needed, add it by the teaspoonful. | 14. Remove the seeds from the pan and set aside. | 15. Cut the tomatoes and onions in half and rub with olive oil. | 16. Place on a baking sheet and broil for about 10 to 12 minutes, turning them once, until slightly charred (this gives the mole even more flavour). | 17. Put half of the chiles, bread, tomatoes, onion, garlic and 1 cup broth in a blender and puree. | 18. Transfer to a large pot. | 19. Repeat with the remaining chiles, bread, tomatoes, onion and garlic. | 20. Add 1 cup broth; puree. | 21. Put half of the peppercorns, cloves, chile seeds and sesame seeds in a spice grinder and grind to a powder. | 22. Add to the pot. | 23. Repeat. | 24. Add the chocolate to the pot along with the salt and remaining chicken stock. | 25. Simmer over low heat for 45 minutes. | 26. Remove from heat and let cool for 30 minutes, then strain. | 27. Tear the poultry into bite-size pieces (discard bone, skin and fat) and heat in the mole sauce just until warm. | 28. Serve with rice or Tostada Mix. | 29. TOSTADA Mix: Toss the cabbage, radishes and cilantro in a large bowl. | 30. Whisk together the garlic, salt, lemon juice, vinegar, brown sugar, cumin, red pepper flakes and olive oil until emulsified. | 31. Add half of the dressing to the slaw and toss. | 32. Taste, and add more dressing if desired. | 33. To serve tostaditas or tostadas: Place a couple of heaping tablespoons of chicken (or turkey or duck) mole on a crisped tortilla and top with slaw. | 34. Garnish with a sprinkling of feta cheese. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
