Ingredients

1 kg of meat (chicken, pork, beef)
6 dried chiles
6 tomatoes
10 zucchini (tender)
Garlic to taste
5 carrots
2 cloves garlic
1/4 onion
Epazote to taste
Water
Salt to taste

Procedure

In a pot with enough water, boil the meat (you can use a little of the three). Soak the dried chili in water. Cut the zucchini into four pieces, the green beans are added whole, cutting only the ends, and the carrots are cut into sticks. Crush the chili with raw tomato, garlic, and onion. When the broth has begun to boil, grind the chili with a strainer, or as you prefer, spread it together with the vegetables, the epazote, and salt to taste. Let it cook for 30 minutes verifying that the vegetables are cooked.
