I see someone's already mentioned mole, but I just thought I'd chime in
there, too! It's not too difficult to make, provided you go with a
simple type like mole coloradito or mole rojo. I made some a couple of
months ago and was really pleased with the results! I didn't have the
right chiles for either a proper coloradito or a proper rojo, but I had
the right ones to make a combo... so I did that! It still tasted better
than any jarred sort I've ever eaten. I used to think I didn't like the
stuff. heh.

Hm... not sure this will work, but I posted some photos to my Facebook
account:

It's private, but apparently that link should allow it to be seen by
anyone. The mole pictures are the last 6. The whole process did take
about 3 hours, but it made enough mole paste to make 5 or 6 meals for
two people. I've frozen the paste in serving-sized portions, so it's an
easy matter of making up the sauce now. Happy to share my mish-mash
recipe, if anyone's interested.
