  • Step 1

    Preheat a large pot over medium heat with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil per person. While the pot heats, finely chop the garlic and chop the brown onion.

  • Step 2

    Add the chopped garlic and onion to the pot. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

  • Step 3

    Chop the zucchini and carrot into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the poblano pepper and radish. Set the radish slices aside for garnish.

  • Step 4

    Add the chopped zucchini, carrot, and poblano pepper to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften, approximately 5-7 minutes.

  • Step 5

    Pour 350 ml of vegetable stock per person into the pot. Add the posole spice and fresh thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  • Step 6

    Rinse the white beans and hominy under cold water and add them to the pot along with the chopped tomatoes. Stir well to combine and return to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

  • Step 7

    Juice 1/4 of a lime per person and stir the lime juice into the pot. Add honey to taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.

  • Step 8

    Serve the posole hot, garnished with the thinly sliced radishes. Optionally, offer additional lime wedges on the side for guests to adjust the acidity to their liking.
