POBLANO STUFFED CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stovetop over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup butter and allow to melt while you begin to prepare the batter. Reserve the melted butter for later use, carefully wipe out the pan and place in the oven to heat.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, combine the milk, buttermilk, egg and melted butter. Make a well in the dry ingredients and gradually incorporate the wet mixture, stirring until the lumps are dissolved. Fold in the cheese, corn and poblanos.
• To bake the cornbread, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter so it sizzles. Coat the pan with the butter and quickly pour the cornbread batter into the skillet. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

STUFFED MEXICAN FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the crumbled corn bread in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Place the flank steak on a flat surface. Hold a long, sharp carving knife parallel to the surface and cut the steak lengthwise in half to make two long rectangles of equal thickness. This may be done by the butcher. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a skillet and add half of the onions, half of the celery, half of the green peppers and half of the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is wilted. Let cool briefly. Add this to the corn bread. Add salt, pepper and the eggs.
• Remove and discard the stems of the jalapeno peppers. Chop the peppers and add them to the bowl. Add the parsley and blend well with the fingers.
• Spoon equal portions of the cornbread mixture onto each half of the meat. Carefully roll the meat jellyroll-style, starting at the narrower end of each portion of the meat. It will be almost impossible to enclose the filling without a portion of it falling out. This is a minor problem. Continue to roll and enclose each filling as neatly as possible. Tie the meat with string in several places to secure it.
• Heat the remaining three tablespoons of oil in a skillet and add the stuffed meat rolls. Brown the meat as neatly as possible on all sides, turning it carefully. Once more, a portion of the filling will fall into the skillet, which is to be expected.
• When the meat is browned, scatter the remaining onions, celery, green peppers and garlic around the rolls. Sprinkle the vegetables with the chili powder, cumin and oregano. Stir to blend and add the crushed tomatoes, broth, salt and pepper. Stir.
• Bring to the boil, cover and place in the oven. Bake about one hour. Transfer the meat to a serving dish and remove the strings. Pour the sauce into a saucepan and skim off the excess fat. Bring to the boil.
• Cut the meat into rounds and serve hot with the sauce. Serve with Mexican table sauce on the side, if desired.
