After seeing Cowgirl and DerHusker's Chiles Rellenos, causing me to salivate and get really hungry, I just had to make my own; I absolutely love this dish!
Here is dinner--it was yummy:
(Got that pretty plate from flea market this past weekend for 50 cents!)
So earlier:
Went to my local Mexican market and bought eight pablanos for $1.85/pound. Bought Monterey Jack and Ranchero Queso Fresco.
While there, I spoke to a few Mexican shoppers in my very rough Spanish asking how to make a salsa for this dish. I ended up going with eight roma tomatoes, four tomatillos, four chiles arboles, and six flame roasted serranos (seeds and veins removed)--added salt to taste.
Started my Bandera up to flame roast the pablanos:
Flame roasting the pablanos:
(By the way one can really taste the smokey flavor from the wood in the chiles--flame roasting them over a wood fire is how they do it at Frontera restaurant; I think it adds a lot of good flavor.)
Dredged the peeled, de-seeded and stuffed pablanos in flour:
The fluffy batter (egg whites separated & whipped up first, adding a few pinches of flour as well) :
Frying the little guys up:
And here is the dinner again. :smile:
Thanks for looking.
