Steps:
- Char the poblanos: Char the peppers over the open flame of your gas stove, turning occasionally until all sides are blackened. Transfer to a heat proof bowl, cover and let cool to room temperature. If you don't have a gas stove you can also do this on a grill or under the broiler.
- Make the Salsa Ranchera: Turn the broiler to high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place tomatoes, onion, garlic, and serranos on the baking sheet and place under the broiler. Check every 2-3 minutes and turn the vegetables so the blacken on all sides. The garlic will cook much faster than the other vegetables. Remove each ingredient as it is done cooking. This should take anywhere from 9-15 minutes.
- Blend the salsa ingredients. Remove the skin from the garlic and the stem and skin from the serranos. If you are sensitive to heat you can also remove the seeds of the serrano peppers too. Place all the blackened vegetables into a blender along with the 2 teaspoons of salt, the oregano, and the cup of water. Blend on high until smooth.
- Fry the sauce. Heat the 2 tablespoons of oil in a small Dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the sauce (careful it will splatter) and fry in the oil until the color deepens and the sauce is fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Cover and keep warm.
- Peel the peppers. Carefully remove the blackened skin from the peppers. Try your best not to rip or break them. Get off as much as you can and rinse the rest off under running water.
- Stuff the peppers. Cut a slit down the side of each pepper and remove the seeds with your fingers, again being careful not to rip or break them. Rinse out any remaining seeds under running water. Fill each pepper with 3/4 to 1/2 cup of shredded cheese depending on the size of the pepper-you will use all the cheese. Place 1-2 fresh epazote leaves inside each pepper if using. Seal closed by threading a toothpick through the opening.
- Make the batter. Beat the egg whites in a bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment on medium-high until they are stiff. Turn the mixer to low and add the yolks one at a time until they are completely incorporated. Add a generous pinch of salt and mix that in as well.
- Heat oil. Heat the cup of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Batter the chiles. Place flour in a pie plate or shallow baking dish. Season generously with salt. Coat the chiles, one at a time, in the flour, dusting off any excess then dip the chiles into the mixing bowl and cover with the egg batter. I like to use a small spatula to "paint" the batter onto the chiles until they are thoroughly coated.
- Fry the chiles. Once the oil is hot (test by sticking a wooden chopstick in the oil, if it is immediately covered in bubbles the oil is ready) add the chiles, two at a time. Adjust the oil temperature as they are cooking. If the oil starts to smoke, turn it down if it becomes too cool, turn up the heat.
- Flip the chiles. Once the chiles are golden brown on one side, flip using a fish spatula and cook until golden on that side. Keep flipping and frying until they are golden all over and they are warmed through, about 5-8 minutes.
- Drain the chiles. Remove to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain the excess oil and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining chiles. Then serve immediately with Salsa Ranchera.
- Make in advance. The chiles keep great if you want to make them ahead. Keep them warm for up to an hour in a low (200°F) oven. Or make, let cool, and refrigerate then reheat in a 350°F oven until hot, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Char the chiles.
- Turn a gas burner on high. Char the chiles on the burner grate, turning with tongs (Marcela is a pro and uses her hands!), until blackened all over. Or char the chiles under the broiler.
- Let them soften.
- Transfer the charred chiles to a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and close. Let stand 10 minutes. The chiles will steam in the bag, making them soft and easy to peel.
- Remove the skin.
- Gently rub the chiles with paper towels to remove as much skin as possible. It's okay if a few flecks remain-they'll add flavor, so don't rinse them off.
- Open the chiles.
- Using a paring knife, make a slit across the top of a chile just below the stem, leaving the stem intact. Starting from the middle of the slit, slice lengthwise down to the tip of the pepper (cut through only one layer). Open the chile like a book and pull out the seeds and inner membranes. You may need to use a paring knife to loosen the top of the seedpod. Repeat with the remaining chiles.
- Prepare the sauce.
- Puree the tomatoes, onion and garlic in a blender until smooth. Warm the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the tomato puree and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally; the sauce will be broth-y. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
- Make the filling.
- Place the cheese in a bowl, then add the oregano, crumbling and rubbing it with your fingers to release its flavor. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
- Stuff the chiles.
- Fill each chile with about 1/4 cup cheese mixture. Fold in the sides to cover the filling, then thread 2 toothpicks across the seam to form an X. You will probably need to make a second toothpick X to secure each chile so the filling doesn't leak out when you fry.
- Mix the batter.
- Beat the egg whites with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Add the egg yolk and beat 3 more minutes.
- Batter and fry.
- Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Dredge: Pour flour into a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. One at a time, coat the stuffed chiles with the flour.
- Batter: Holding each chile by the stem, lower it into the egg batter to cover completely. Let any excess batter drip off.
- Fry: Add the chiles to the hot oil, 1 or 2 at a time; fry, flipping once with tongs, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
- Eat!
- Place a fried chile on each plate and pour the warm sauce over it. Serve immediately.

CHILE RELLENOS
I'm posting this recipe especially for all those ex-pats out there who can't pop out to a Mexican restaurant when they get the craving. It is admittedly a "fiddly" recipe, but making it myself is the only way I can ever get to eat what is one of my most favorite Mexican dishes. After making it once, you'll find that it isn't so difficult. And for those of you living in Europe as I do, I've discovered that the long and slender dark-green chiles found in Turkish and Moroccan vegetable markets work well, and for the cheese I use a white French Pyrenees cheese that is a suitable substitute for Monterey Jack. This seems to be a dish that varies widely from region to region in how it is prepared; this version is the type I always enjoyed the most.

Steps:
- For the Sauce:.
- Combine the tomatoes, garlic and onion in a food processor and process until liquid.
- Heat 1 TBS olive oil in a saucepan and add mixture; cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the chicken broth, salt, jalapenos and cinnamon; simmer gently for 15 minutes more.
- For the chiles:.
- Place the chiles on a baking sheet in a 450°F oven, turning occasionally, until the peels begin to brown and blister all over.
- Remove from oven and place in a plastic bowl and cover with a plate; allow to stand for 10 minutes (alternatively, they can be placed in a brown paper bag for the same length of time).
- After this time, carefully peel the skins away but keeping the chiles intact, including stems.
- Cut a slit (only as big as is needed) along the side of each chile, and slide a piece of cheese in each; if the chile tears open, you can close and secure with wooden toothpicks.
- Roll the filled chiles in flour and evenly coat; set aside.
- Beat the egg whites in a bowl until stiff.
- In another bowl, lightly beat the yolks then add them to the whites, folding in lightly but thoroughly.
- Pour peanut oil to a depth of 1/4 inch in a large frying pan and heat to 365°F; you will be able to tell that it is hot enough without a thermometer if when you drop a bit of flour into the oil it quickly begins to brown.
- Dip each chile in turn into the egg mixture, coating evenly and sliding any excess off with your fingers, then place immediately in the hot oil (I only fry three at a time).
- Fry till golden, turning on all sides (they should be done in 1-2 minutes); remove and drain on paper toweling.
- Repeat with remaining chiles.
- Remove any toothpicks that you may have used!
- Serve topped with the sauce.

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:
- Turn a gas stovetop burner to high heat. Roast the pasilla chiles, 2 at a time, directly over the flame, turning occasionally to char evenly, until the skin has brown spots all over, 6-8 minutes. (Alternatively, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Toss the chiles with about 1 tablespoon of oil, place on a baking sheet, and roast for about 35 minutes, or until the skin is beginning to char and pull away from the flesh.)
- Transfer the chiles to a medium bowl and cover with a plate. Steam for 30 minutes.
- Once the chiles have steamed, use gloves to peel off the charred skin. Use a paring knife or kitchen shears to cut a vertical opening in each pepper, being careful not to cut all the way through. Gently remove the seeds.
- Stuff each chile with the queso fresco.
- Add enough vegetable oil to a large pot to just cover the bottom. Turn the heat to medium-high and add the peppers to the pot in a single layer with the opening face up. When the oil is hot and the peppers begin to sizzle, add the Mexican sour cream, milk, and any remaining queso fresco. Bring the cream sauce to a boil, occasionally moving the chiles around but not turning them all the way over.
- Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 8-10 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with the pepper and salt.
- Serve immediately with warm corn tortillas alongside.
- Enjoy!
