Transfer the chiles, peppers, and broth to a blender. Add oregano, cumin, onion pieces, onion powder, garlic and blend until smooth. Strain the sauce if you want. Set aside in a bowl.
In a pan heat the oil mixing in the flour. Add the sauce in bowl that you strained to the flour mixture. Sauté for about for 10 minutes. Mix with the pork.
Add sun-dried tomatoes to the blender along with some of the liquids used to boil the peppers. Blend till smooth.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the lard and 2 tablespoons of broth until fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Combine the masa flour, baking powder, salt, and cumin in a separate bowl mix well. Start to stir into the lard mixture and beat well with an electric mixer.
Add the rest of the 3 cups of broth to the masa mixture. The dough will be soft and a bit sticky, when mix well.
Take and turn on heat, water in a pot to steam in, with enough water as not to touch the bottom of the steaming chamber.
Pat dry the cornhusk. Spread some of the tamale dough to cover the Cornhusk. Add about a tablespoon of the pork to the center of tamale dough, lengthwise.
