      Title: NEW MEXICO GREEN CHILE RELLENOS
 Categories: Southwest, Chile, Cheese
      Yield: 12 -16
 
     12    Whole, Long, Green chiles
           -Such as Anaheim or Big Jim
      1 lb Jack cheese cut in
           -thin strips

MMMMM---------------------------BATTER--------------------------------
    1/2 c  Flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Baking powder
      1    Egg
      1 c  Milk
 
  	Roast and peel the green chile peppers, removing the seeds and
  stems. Try to keep the chile flesh whole. Make a slit in the chile
  just large enough to insert strips of cheese.
  
  	(Some cooks prefer to leave stems on(I am one), so slit down the
  side of the chile to remove seeds and to insert cheese.) 	Mix flour,
  salt and baking powder. Add molk and egg and beat until smooth. Dip
  cheese-stuffed chiles in batter and fry in about 1 inch of hot fat
  (veg oil) until they are golden brown. Drain. Ideally, they are
  served with hot pinto beans.
