Chilies Rellenos


INGREDIENTS:
12 Poblano (hot) or Anaheim (less hot) chile peppers, charred and peeled
1 pound Queso Blanco cheese, cut into strips
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon canola oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour for coating


DIRECTIONS:
1. Remove seeds and membranes from peppers (or leave 'em in if you're a masochist.) Stuff each pepper with a strip of cheese.


2.In a small bowl combine milk, flour, egg, baking powder, baking soda, salt and canola oil; mix well to make a batter.

3.Pour enough oil in heavy frying pan to reach 1 inch in depth and heat over medium-high heat. Roll each pepper in flour and dip in the batter. Fry until lightly browned on both sides.
