I rolled >>3720563 which was Mexican.

This is beef mole with a salad and fried plantains.

Mole sauce goes as follows: mole paste consists of toasted new mexico, guajillo, mulato, pasilla, and chipotle chiles (afterwards reconstituted with boiling water), roasted garlic onion and plantain, then sauteed sesame seeds, peanuts, almonds, walnuts, raisins, cinnamon stick, whole cumin cloves and black peppercorns in lard, all added to a blender with thyme, oregano, and marjoram. Added enough chile water to blend easily. Returned smoothly blended mix to pan with heated lard, adding bittersweet chocolate and some sugar, cooked for ~60min while stirring constantly. For the sauce, add 1:1 of paste and minced sauteed tomato with stock added and reduced as appropriate.

The salad is black beans, grilled corn, grape tomato, avocado, red onion, coriander, and nopal cactus with lime juice.
