Ingredients:

  • 4 large poblano peppers
  • 200g Oaxaca cheese or mozzarella, sliced into strips
  • 3 eggs, separated
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Salt to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your broiler to high. Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and broil them, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered all over. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Transfer the roasted peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let them steam for about 10 minutes, then carefully peel off the skins. Make a small slit down the side of each pepper and remove the seeds, being careful to keep the peppers intact.
  3. Stuff each pepper with slices of cheese, ensuring they are well-filled but still able to close.
  4. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until light and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold the beaten egg yolks into the egg whites until just combined.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  7. Roll each stuffed pepper in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip them into the egg mixture, making sure they're evenly coated.
  8. Fry the peppers in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until they're golden brown and crispy on all sides.
  9. Remove the fried peppers from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  10. Serve the Chiles Rellenos hot, with your favorite salsa or tomato sauce on the side. Enjoy!
