Chile Rellenos
Cut cheese into matchstick-size pieces — 2 inches long by 1/8" square. Cut a tiny slit toward the top of the chile and carefully slide in pieces of the cheese until chile is filled with cheese. Drain stuffed chiles on paper towel before dipping in batter. Heat oil to 350° F and dip chilies into batter and carefully slide them into the heated oil. Turn chiles over once they are golden brown. Second side will brown quicker. Reserve leftover batter for another use. Drain on paper towels and serve warm with Red Chile Sauce. Serves 6.
