PONDFROGS PRICKLY PEAR CACTUS CHILI



Pondfrogs Prickly Pear Cactus Chili image

who'da thought prickly pear cactus plants would be delicious! I tried cactus chili at a restaurant and loved it. they taste a bit like green beans. I tried to duplicate it at home and think I came pretty close. my 14 yr old son loves it!I I can't find fresh cactus (flat pad nopales) in my area but I did find some already prepared in a jar at a grocery store in the mexican food isle. if you use fresh you need to clean/cook them first (you can google how to prepare fresh cactus). this chili is not very spicy so if you like it hot use more chili powder. I like v8 vegetable juice and fresh tomatoes but can be made with tomato juice and diced canned tomatoes. it's a very simple recipe that can be altered easily for taste preferences. I am thinking I may try it with ground turkey or chicken sometime. I think it would also be good with no meat for a vegetarian meal. freezes well. makes a large pot.

Provided by Molly53

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large nopales (prickly pear cactus paddles, cleaned of spines and glochids)
1/4 medium white onion
1 large garlic clove, peeled and halved
salt
6 slices monterey jack cheese or 6 slices gouda cheese
1/4-1/2 cup flour
3 eggs, separated, at room temperature
corn oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Place the whole cactus paddles, onion and garlic in a large pot with water to cover and salt to taste.
  • Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes, or until the nopales are tender but still firm.
  • Drain and rinse.
  • Starting at the wide, curved end, carefully slice each paddle horizontally, as if butterflying a chop for stuffing.
  • Do not cut all the way through to the narrow end (the thicker part where the pad is attached to the main plant) but leave approximately 1 1/2" uncut.
  • Place a slice of cheese between the two sections and press flat.
  • Dredge the paddles in flour.
  • Beat egg whites until they form stiff peaks, and fold in the lightly beaten egg yolks.
  • Pour enough oil into large skillet so that it comes up at least 1/2 inch.
  • Heat the oil until sizzling hot.
  • Dip the stuffed nopales in the egg batter to coat and fry in the hot oil until golden brown on each side.
  • Serve immediately with red salsa.
