Let's start with cooking the meat. The best way to do this is the night before tamale day. You’ll need two large pots. Cut the pork roast into 5 or 6 large chunks. Place the chicken in one pot and the roast in the other and cover both with water. This is also a fun place to throw in some garlic cloves, onion slices, or anything else you think might serve the meat well. Bring to a boil. The chicken will be done in about 2 hours, the roast will need at least 2 ½ hours.

First, you spread out your ingredients on the table, open up all the packages. Then you get your pot and fill it up with water, halfway to the top. Take your meat, place it in the pot and let it boil for three hours until its tender. Be sure to add lots of salt to the meat, this will help tenderize the meat. Peel and clean all the chiles (anchos and guaillo), make sure you remove all the seeds and the veins. If you have sensitive eyes or skin, I would advise that you get some gloves and don’t touch your eyes (they are very hot and will dye your skin red and burn). Then take the chiles and pass them through a pan of oil. Boil the chiles in a separate pot from the meat. After this put the chiles in a blender and blend them with the four cloves of garlic and more salt. Separate

Then saute onions, garlic and a bit of red chili in olive oil – he called this sablada. Now, remember, this is important, don't let the olive oil get too hot, keep it at a low heat. Soak the bacalhau for 2 days, changing the water each day. Boil it in milk for 15 minutes and then flake it into the onions and saute until the codfish soaks up the olive oil. Make a well in the mashed potatoes and add the onions and the flaked bacalhau. With a wooden spoon, add egg yolks into a BIG measuring cup and beat it like a mayonnaise. This will take a long time, but keep beating until it thickens. Spread the mayonnaise on top of the bacalhau and onions, and bake it in a 425F oven until bubbling and browned on

As well as the salsa, all the ingredients need to be out and ready for use. Three cups of flour, one teaspoon of salt, one teaspoon of baking powder, one third of a cup of vegetable oil and one cup of warm water. Getting the water will come when needed to prevent from becoming cold. First mix flour, salt and baking powder in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix dry ingredients until well combined. Add oil and water with mixer running at a medium speed. Mix for about one minute, stopping several times to scrape the sides of the bowl. When mixture comes together and begins to form a ball, decrease the mixing speed to low. Continue to mix for another minute or until the dough is smooth. Transfer the dough from mixing bowl to a well-floured work surface. Cut dough in half, then in half again. Continue until you have sixteen fairly equal portions. Form each piece of dough into a ball and flatten with the palm of your hand as much as possible. If dough is too sticky, use a little more flour. Cover flattened balls of dough with a clean kitchen towel and allow to rest for fifteen minutes before continuing. After the rest period, heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Roll each dough piece into a rough circle, about six to seven inches in across, keep work surface and rolling pin lightly floured. Do not stack uncooked tortillas on top of each other or they will become soggy. When the pan has become very hot, place one dough circle into the pan and allow to cook about for about one minute or until the bottom surface has a few pale brown spots. The uncooked surface will begin to show a few little bubbles. If the tortilla is browning too fast, turn down the heat just a bit, if it is taking longer than a minute to see a few pale golden brown spots on underside of tortillas, increase the heat a bit. Flip to other side and cook for about thirty seconds. The tortillas are to be soft, with a few small pale golden brown spots on the

This will help secure the ham and cheese in the roll. Place the top pieces of the Hawaiian rolls on a plate to the side, and you can now place the bottom halves of the rolls in the pan and push them close together. By doing this you will keep the top and bottom pieces of the roll from getting mixed up and you will fit every bottom half of the rolls in the pan. Once all of the bottom pieces are in the pan take out twelve pieces of the ham and place them on a plate and cut them in half. Next, fold each piece of ham and place them one by one on each piece of the Hawaiian halves. This helps you to know that each roll will have ham; it also makes applying the top halves of the rolls more simple. After this get twelve pieces of Sargento Colby Jack cheese and cut them in half. This is the best cheese to use because it has an extravagant taste and a smooth texture. After the pieces are cut in half place each piece on top of each piece of ham, then place the top halves of the Hawaiian rolls over the cheese. Once you have completed all of these steps you are now ready to begin making the

Discard about half the oil, return the skillet to the heat, and add eggs. Add the salt and pepper and stir constantly. As the eggs begin to set, add the tortilla chips and continue to stir, scraping the bottom of the pan. If you want to add the cheese, tomatoes, and jalapenos do it now.
