I have had this dish probably over a hundred times in my life and I must say this is the best one I have ever tasted. This is a different way of making Chile Relanos. I really do not like to deep fry my food. This version for me tastes better. Most Chile Relanos are not cooked properly. The batter is to thick.                   

 

  • 6 whole Anaheim Chile peppers
  • 1/2 cup Mole sauce
  • 1 cup queso fresco
  • 3 cups tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder

Recipe

Heat tomato sauce with vinegar and cumin
 
If you have a gas range char the Chilies until the skins are blistery otherwise broil them until they are blistery. Once done put in paper bag. Allow to sit for 10 minutes then peel the chilies.
Stuff each pepper with a strip of cheese along with a tablespoon of mole.
Put in casserole pan.
After stuffing last Chile pour tomatoes sauce over the chilies along with Mexican crema.
Cook at 350 for 20 minutes.
