½ chopped medium onion.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ teaspoon Mexican oregano
Salt to taste to season
For the Garnish:

1 ½ cups finely chopped white onion
1 ½ cups thinly sliced radishes

Mexican oregano to taste for seasoning
Tostada Shells 2–3 per person

Instructions
Put the water to heat in a large pot. Add the onion, garlic, salt, meat, and ribs. Let it come to a boil and then lower the heat so that the meat cooks for approximately 2 and a half hours, or until it falls off the bone.
While the meat is cooking, remove with a ladle the layer of foam and fat that forms on the surface of the broth. If necessary, add more hot water to maintain the same level of broth in the pot.
When the meat is cooked, separate it from the broth. Trim excess fat, rib bones, onion, and garlic from the broth.
To prepare the sauce, soak the ancho and guajillo chilis for 25 minutes in enough water to cover them.
Once the chiles are soft, drain them and place them in the blender along with the garlic, onion, and oregano, adding a little of the water where they were soaked. Blend until it has the consistency of a smooth sauce.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the sauce, and season with salt. (Stir constantly, as it tends to jump). Reduce the heat and simmer for approx. 25 minutes.
Add the sauce to the broth by first passing it through a strainer. Let it come to a boil and add the meat. Boil on low heat for approx. 10 minutes.
Add the corn and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the corn is fully cooked.
Serve the pozole in a deep dish and place the garnish of your preference and enjoy!
Note: The original Recipe is made with pork, but you can also prepare pozole with chicken, turkey, mushrooms, and even shrimp.
