How To Make mole sandwich
-
Step 1Quarter pepper. Roast on stovetop burner. In the meantime, sautee onion in olive oil.
-
Step 2Add mushrooms to onions. Roughly slice roasted peppers and add to onions. Add vegetable broth, all the spices, and sofrito.
-
Step 3Stir well and let simmer 10 minutes. Blend mixture in 2-3 batches (ladle into blender). Return mixture to pot.
-
Step 4Peel turnip. Finely dice half of it, and finely slice the other half. Add the diced turnip to the mole, and reserve the slices.
-
Step 5Add smashed garlic cloves. Cover and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Step 6Slice your roll in half, lengthwise, but don't cut all the way through. Smear on avocado andd douse with a couple of lime juice squirts.
-
Step 7Layer on sliced turnip.
-
Step 8Layer on the cheese.
-
Step 9Pour on a few ladles of the mole. Center it in the middle. It will slowly melt the cheese underneath. Add a few dashes of dried cilantro on top.
