Method
For the Sauce:
- Place walnuts in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Let gently boil for 5 minutes and drain.
- Return walnuts to the pan and add milk. Bring to a simmer then cover and remove from heat. Let sit 30 minutes to soften.
- Transfer milk and nuts to a blender. Add sour cream and salt and blend on high until smooth. Taste and add more salt if needed. Transfer to a serving dish and set aside or cover and refrigerate. The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance.
For the Filling:
- Heat broiler to high and arrange a rack about 3 inches from the heat source. Place chiles on a baking sheet and place under the broiler.
- Cook, turning occasionally for 4-5 minutes or until charred on all sides. Place chiles in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap until cool enough to handle.
- Remove charred skin, core, and seeds and chop. If you have a gas stove, you can also char them over the flame of the gas stove, turning frequently until they are charred and blistered on all sides.
- Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan. Add onions, garlic, and apples and season with salt and pepper. Cook until veggies are soft, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add ground meats and cook, breaking up with the back of a spoon until browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add sesame seeds and cinnamon and toast 1 minute. Add tomatoes and cook until tomatoes have brown down and mixture is thick, about 4 minutes more. Stir in poblanos. Taste and season with more salt if needed. Cover and keep warm.
To Serve:
- Spoon meat filling into warm tortillas, drizzle walnut sauce on top, and sprinkle with more sesame seeds, pomegranate seeds, cilantro leaves, and sliced scallions. Dig in!
