CHEESY CHILES RELLENOS

CHILES RELLENOS WITH CHEESE SAUCE
These chilies are filled with wonderful melted cheese and coated in a rich beaten egg mixture. Growing up in a state with no Latino population, I didn't taste these little beauties until I was 12 years old. It was love at first bite. I still love them and they're one of my favorite foods.

TRADITIONAL CHILES RELLENOS
I've had this recipe posted for a long time and it's gotten great reviews as is so I don't want to change anything to how it's posted, but I don't make it the same way anymore. After frying the stuffed and battered peppers I put them in a pan, then pour enchilada sauce over them. Next I sprinkle them with cheese and then bake them til the cheese is melted. SOOOO yummy. Also a tip for anyone who is worried about their peppers holding together: Use toothpicks to hold the peppers closed before dipping them in the egg batter. I set the peppers in the batter and spoon it over the top so that I can handle them carefully. Take the toothpicks out before baking or serving.

Steps:
- Rinse the chiles.
- Preheat your oven to broil.
- Place the chiles in a 9 x 14 baking dish and place on the top shelf of your oven. (I use a cookie sheet.).
- Watch and listen closely. When the skins start to make popping sounds and to char and turn black in places, take the chiles out and flip them over. Be sure and use a potholder so you don't burn your hands!
- When both sides are fairly evenly charred, remove them from the oven. You don't want them to be black all over, it is important that you do not over cook them.
- Wrap each chile in a moist paper towel or place in a sealed plastic bag to steam.
- After a few minutes, check them. Once the skin comes off easily, peel each chile. Try not to tear into the actual chile.
- Cut a slit almost the full length of each chile. Make a small "t" across the top, by the stem. Pull out fibers and seeds (this is where the heat is) and replace with a slice of cheese. I use a tea spoon for this to gently scrape/scoop the seeds out. It�s ok if you miss a few. You can set these aside, for a few minutes or a few hours if you put them in the refrigerator.
- Whip the egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer, until stiff peaks have formed.
- Heat the oil in a skillet until a drop of water sizzles when dropped into the pan.
- Beat the egg yolks with one tablespoon flour and salt. Mix the yolks into egg whites and stir until you have a thick paste.
- Roll the chiles in 1/4 cup flour and dip each one in the egg batter. Coat evenly (I'm still not very good at this step, but try not to coat the chiles too thickly). Fry, seam side down on both sides until golden brown. Place on paper towels to drain.
- Meanwhile, heat the salsa in a medium saucepan (either one or some of each). Place one or two rellenos on each plate and pour salsa over them. Serve them immediately! I recommend serving them with rice, beans, and tortillas. Sour cream is also good on these.

Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Roast peppers on the top rack of the preheated oven until the skins are charred, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and allow to cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Set the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- While peppers are cooling, whisk eggs, flour, milk, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl until smooth. Slice the queso fresco into eight even rectangles, just shorter than the length of the peppers.
- Carefully peel off the waxy skin of the cooled peppers. Gently cut a slit down the length of the peppers and use a spoon to remove the seeds and membranes.
- Spread about 1/4 cup of the milk mixture on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Wrap each pepper around a queso fresco rectangle. Place each chile/cheese wrap seam-side down in a single layer in the baking dish. Cover with remaining egg mixture. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the egg mixture has risen and the cheese is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Add 2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese, 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and stir until completely melted. Fold in macaroni and season to taste with salt and pepper; remove from heat and set aside.
- To prepare poblanos, make a slice to open the pepper, then gently rinse to remove seeds. Keep the stem intact if possible. Fill the peppers with macaroni and cheese, and wrap the edges of the poblanos towards each other to meet halfway. Place on prepared baking sheet. Top with remaining 1 cup shredded pepper jack and cheddar cheeses.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until cheeses are melted and filling is warmed through.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place peppers onto the prepared baking sheet, and cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 10 minutes. Turn the peppers often to blacken all sides. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 15 minutes.
- Rinse cooled peppers under cold water to peel off the skins, and cut a slit along the long side of each pepper to remove the seeds and core. Rinse the peppers inside and out, and pat dry with paper towels. Stuff the peppers with strips of the cheese.
- Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl with the baking powder. In a second metal bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until the whites form stiff peaks. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture. Place flour into a shallow bowl.
- Heat the vegetable shortening in a skillet over medium heat. Roll each stuffed pepper in flour, tap off excess flour, and dip the peppers into the egg mixture to coat both sides. Gently lay the coated peppers into the hot shortening. Fry peppers until lightly golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes per side.

- Roast or char the Anaheim chiles by either placing them on a tray under the broiler, directly on the grill, or directly over the open flame. I prefer to broil them because you can do more at one time, and it just seems faster and easier. Whatever method you choose, turn them every 2 to 3 minutes for a total of 6 to 9 minutes. They must seem charred and blistered on the outside, and the flesh must be cooked but not burnt.
- Stuff each chile with about 1/3 cup cheese or as much as will fit allowing them to close. You may seal with a toothpick.
- In a mixer, beat the egg whites until they can hold stiff peaks. Gently, over low speed, fold in the egg yolks and only beat enough to incorporate them, a few seconds.
- In a large casserole, heat about 1/2” depth of oil, over medium to medium-high heat. Once hot, test the oil by dipping in a piece of tortilla or bread — if there are active and happy bubbles all around it, the oil is ready. If and when oil is ready, dip each of the stuffed and floured chiles into the egg batter, making sure that they are entirely covered in batter. Gently place them in the hot oil, trying to keep the side that was open or sealed with the toothpick facing up. Spoon some of the hot oil on top, so that it will seal the chile. Make as many as will fit in the casserole without overcrowding them. Fry for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. Make sure you flip them gently with a slotted spoon. Once ready, place on a paper covered drying rack or platter.
