Chile Rellenos
Source of Recipe
Shanny
List of Ingredients
6 large fresh green chiles
1/2 pound mozzarella or jack cheese
4 beaten eggs
1/2 tsp. salt
4 tbsp. flour
oil as needed for frying
Recipe
Sear peppers on all sides under broiler - wrap in damp towel to steam a few minutes until skins peel off easily. Split peppers and remove seeds - stuff with cheese.
Make batter from eggs, flour and salt. Dip stuffed peppers in batter one at a time, then slip into hot oil. Cook until nicely browned, turning to brown all sides. Serve immediately, smothered with green chile sauce and topped with shredded lettuce & diced tomato, if desired. Good side dishes are beans and/or spanish rice.
(If you wish to dispense with searing & peeling the peppers, it won't effect the flavor of the dish, but the batter won't stick near as well.)
