Directions
-
Flour For Coating Chilies 4 tb Flour Oil For Frying, 1 1/2 to 2 -Inches Deep In Pan Sauce Ingredients: * 1 sm Onion, Chopped 1 Clove Garlic, Crushed 1 ts Oil 1 c Tomatoes, Whole 2 c Chicken Broth Salt, To Taste Pepper, To Taste Oregano, To Taste * This is enough sauce for six to eight chiles.
-
Cut the cheese into pieces about 1/2 inch square and 2-1/2 inches long.
-
Stuff each chile with one piece of the cheese.
-
Roll each chile in flour until well coated.
-
Make a batter by beating the whites of the four eggs until they are stiff.
-
It is very important to use a clean mixing bowl and beaters to ensure having a nice stiff batter, this sounds unimportant but it will
-
make the difference between OK and Great final product.
-
Beat the yolks lightly, fold the yolks into the whites and then fold in the four T of flour.
-
Drop the stuffed and floured chiles into the batter one at a time.
-
Pick up each with a spoon and
-
transfer to a saucer; then slide from saucer into about 1-1/2 inches of moderately hot oil in your largest frying pan.
-
This is also important since it will help keep the batter on the chile and
-
make for a nice presentation.
-
Baste with hot oil or they may turtle before you want them too.
-
Fry until golden brown on each side.
-
I do four or five at a time.
-
Drain the chiles on absorbent paper towels and let them stand.
-
Don't worry if the nice puffy coating deflates, it will puff up again when heated in the thin sauce before serving.
-
Prepare thin sauce by cooking onion and garlic until wilted, in oil.
-
Add tomatoes and press through a strainer.
-
Press canned tomatoes through a strainer and combine with onion and garlic.
-
Put in a pot and bring to a boil.
-
Season to taste with salt, pepper and oregano.
-
At serving time,
-
heat the chiles in the boiling thin sauce for about five minutes and they are ready to
-
serve with some of the reserved sauce.
