Ingredients:
8 bell peppers
2 green onions, minced
1 tsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp minced cilantro
1/2 cup grated monterey jack
1 cup flour
1 oil for frying
1 tbsp lard
2 tbsp finely minced onions
8 oz ground chuck
1 tbsp minced parsley
2 tbsp raisins
12 oz flat beer
1 egg beaten + 1 beaten white
1 salt and pepper
Instructions:
Blacken the peppers over an open flame. When cracked and black, put
into a paper or plastic bag (wait a minute if using plastic). Secure
the bag and let stand for 30 minutes. Peel the peppers under running
water. Make a slit lengthwise down the pepper and carefully remove
the seeds. Melt the lard in a pan and add the onions, green onions,
garlic and ground beef. Cook over high heat until well browned. Pour
off excess fat and toss in the thyme, parsley, cilantro and raisins.
Heat through and divide the mixture among half of the peppers. Secure
with toothpicks and stuff the remaining peppers with grated cheese.
Beat the beer into the flour and add the egg to form a batter. Let
stand for at least 30 minutes, correcting the texture with an
additional egg yolk or more flour. Heat the oil to 350 degrees. Dip
each pepper into the batter allowing excess to run off. Fry the
peppers until golden, drain well and serve one of each pepper per
person.
