Instructions

1. 1 Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

Ingredients

• ✓ queso fresco
• cilantro
• pomegranate seed
• vegetable oil
• all-purpose flour
• flour
• egg
• mexican cheese blend
• corn
• black bean
• squash blossom
• chorizo sausage
• poblano pepper
• cinnamon
• white sugar
• sour cream
• milk
• walnut

Instructions

1. 1 Place walnuts into a bowl and cover with milk; soak in the refrigerator 3 to 4 hours to overnight.
2. 2 Drain walnuts and place into a food processor. Add queso fresco, sour cream, sugar, and cinnamon. Puree until completely smooth. Add milk to the food processor as necessary to make creamy. Set sauce aside.
3. 3 Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
4. 4 Place poblano peppers onto the prepared baking sheet.
5. 5 Broil peppers in the preheated oven until skins blacken and blister, about 10 minutes, making sure to turn peppers halfway through cooking time. Remove from the oven and place peppers directly into a plastic resealable bag. Seal and allow to sit and steam for 15 minutes.
6. 6 Remove skins from peppers carefully by scraping them using a spoon or your fingers. Cut a slit down the long side of each pepper. Remove and discard seeds and veins and set peppers aside.
7. 7 Heat a skillet over medium heat. Saute chorizo in the skillet for 2 to 3 minutes. Add squash blossoms and continue cooking until meat is browned and crumbly and blossoms are wilted, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in black beans and corn; cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Turn off heat and mix in Mexican cheese.
8. 8 Stuff peppers carefully with chorizo mixture, making sure not to overstuff so that peppers can be closed completely. Set aside.
9. 9 Place egg whites and yolks into 2 separate bowls. Whisk 1 tablespoon flour into yolks to make a paste. Beat egg whites using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold beaten egg whites into yolk mixture very gently to preserve volume of egg whites.
10. 10 Place 1 cup flour onto a plate. Dredge stuffed peppers into flour, covering all sides completely. Dip flour-covered stuffed peppers into egg mixture; entire peppers should be completely covered.
11. 11 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or a deep, heavy pan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
12. 12 Deep-fry each pepper in the hot oil until golden, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to drain grease.
13. 13 Place cooked poblanos onto plates; pour walnut sauce over. Top with pomegranate seeds and cilantro. Serve.

• tomatillo
• yellow onion
• garlic
• cumin
• water
• vegetable oil
• chicken bouillon
• cilantro
• vegetable oil
• corn tortilla
• lettuce
• red onion

Instructions

1. 1 Place jalapeno peppers, tomatillos, yellow onion, garlic, and cumin in a blender; pour in enough water to cover the vegetables. Blend until liquified, about 1 minute.
2. 2 Heat 1/3 cup vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat just until oil has begun to warm, about 30 seconds; pour the blended jalapeno mixture into the oil. Stir in chicken bouillon cubes and cilantro. Reduce heat to medium and cook sauce for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove green sauce from heat and allow to stand while you complete remaining steps.
3. 3 Heat 1 cup vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Using a tongs, place each tortilla into the hot oil and fry for a few seconds on each side. Tortillas will be pliable; do not overcook.
4. 4 Immerse the fried tortilla into the green sauce to coat; place tortilla on a serving plate. Sprinkle tortilla with about 2 teaspoons shredded queso fresco cheese and roll into a thin enchilada. It's easiest if one person is frying tortillas while another person dips in sauce, fills with cheese, and rolls the tortillas.
5. 5 Place enchiladas onto serving plates; spoon with remaining green sauce and sprinkle with remaining queso fresco cheese. Spread shredded lettuce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with chopped red onion. Top servings with a tablespoon of sour cream.

Ingredients

• ✓ queso fresco
• chorizo sausage
• mushroom
• onion
• tomato
• chicken broth
• tomato paste
• bread
• butter
• baking soda
• egg
• mexican crema
• crema fresca

Instructions

1. 1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chorizo with mushrooms and onion in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard fat.
2. 2 Combine diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and tomato paste in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir in the chorizo mixture and most of the crema, reserving a small amount to drizzle on top later. Cover and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until stew is the texture of a thick chili, at least 30 minutes.
3. 3 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4. 4 Lightly butter both sides of the bread slices and place on a baking sheet.
5. 5 Toast in the preheated oven, turning bread halfway, for 10 minutes.
6. 6 Fill a pot with water and add baking soda. Bring to a boil. Add eggs and boil for exactly 5 minutes and 45 seconds. Remove eggs and immediately place into an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. Remove shells.
7. 7 Place eggs into the chorizo stew to re-warm them. Top with queso fresco and drizzle with the remaining crema. Serve in bowls with pieces of toasted bread.
