This recipe came from one lady's grandmother who was born and raised in Mexico City and says that the secret is the cocoa. Need I say more!

This recipe is quite spicy. The amounts on the ingredients are very flexible. Increase the tomato sauce and/or decrease the spice to make more mild.
Experiment to suit your taste, but don't leave out the cocoa! It is the secret ingredient.
