Who's in the Kitchen with

Hi! Welcome to my kitchen. This isn't one of those low fat, low salt
low taste sites. It just has plain good tasting recipes.
I will be adding more recipes in the future so check back often.
My Dad just dies over this first recipe.

Chilies Rellenos
6 California Chileis, roasted and peeled
4 oz. Monterey Jack cheese
oil for frying
About 1/2 C. flour
After I roast the chilies I place them in a plastic bag and cover with a
towel. It makes them easier to peel.
After you have them all peeled cut as small a slit as possible in
one side of each chilie to remove seeds. Leave on the stems.
Cut cheese into 6 long thin sticks.
Place one stick in each chilie. Use more cheese if needed.
Fasten closed with toothpicks.
Pour oil 1/2 inch deep into a large skillet. Heat to 365 degrees.
Beat egg whites in a medium bowl until stiff.
Slightly beat egg yolks and fold into the whites lightly.
Roll chilies in flour, then dip in egg mixture to coat.
Fry in hot oil until golden brown, turn with spatula.
Drain on paper towels.
Serve with rice and beans.
