I would skip the sour cream. Looks like a good stew.

I love potatoes infused with green chili!

Sorry WM, potatoes are a principal ingredient of caldito, but I don't think I'd like them in my chili verde because I usually spoon it over home fries anyway.

well see, if you're putting them over home fries (potatoes) you don't need potatoes in the stew,,,,

I would skip the sour cream.

I don't always use it - but it was good that time

I love potatoes infused with green chili!

concur

I add beans and potatoes to my chili whether it's red or green.

We're making green chili stew with pork tenderloin in a couple of days. We use the Santa Fe cookbooks by Jim Douglas circa 1979. And yes, while it doesn't have to have potatoes, it can. Both the Palace Restaurant's and Tia Sophia's recipes have potatoes.

I worked right across the street from Tia Sophia's as a part-time job in 1969-70's. We called it Olivia's as she was the head honcho at the time.

One really funny comment in the book was that "many specials at Tia Sophias are $2 or less, and a bowl of chili is half that".

Bet you couldn't get a cup of coffee in Santa Fe for $2 now, much less a meal.

Have fond memories of St. John's and the Pecos Wilderness.
