Ingredients:
6 anaheim chilies
3 ounces cream cheese
3 eggs, separated
1/2 cup flour
salt
oil ( for frying)
2 tablespoons chopped onions
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon oregano

Directions:
Slit peppers at lower end. Remove seeds and pulpy connective tissue, but leave on stems. Parboil until tender.
Stuff each pepper with two pieces of cream cheese 1/8-inch thick.
Beat egg whites until they are white. Add yolks and continue beating until uniform and fluffy. Salt the egg batter.
Heat oil for cooking. Roll pepper in flour then dip in egg batter. Fry until egg is golden. If you put more than one pepper at a time into the pan, be sure not to put in so many that the oil temperature drops too much. The rellenos shouldn’t be touching each other either.
Pour some sauce over each relleno and serve.
SAUCE: Saute onions in 1 T. peanut oil. Add tomato sauce, a couple shakes of salt and oregano. Simmer 5 minutes. Should be hot when served over the rellenos.

Servings: 3-6

Time preparation: 45 min.

Time total: 60 min.
