INSTRUCTIONS
WALNUT SAUCE
(Stuffed Green Chiles With Walnut Sauce) from Mexican Family Cooking
Brown meat and onion in oil until no longer pink. Add tomatoes, garlic,
salt and pepper, spices, sugar, and vinegar. Lower heat and cover. Cook for
2 minutes, stirring often. Taste for seasoning. Add apple, almonds,
raisins, and olives. Simmer mixture until almost dry. Set aside. Blister
chiles in hot oil and peel. Make slit and remove seeds and veins. If too
hot, place in well-salted cold water and soak for at least an hour. Remove
and dry with paper towels. If chiles are to be served cold, mix 1/4 c.
vinegar and 1/2 c. oil, add salt and crushed oregano and brush on peppers
before stuffing. Stuff with filling and serve with walnut sauce. Or prepare
egg batter and fry. (See preceeding recipe for more complete instructions.)
WALNUT SAUCE: Place 1 cup walnuts, 1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese, 1 cup half
and half, and 1/2 tsp salt in blender. Puree but do not overdo it. Should
be thick like mayonaise. Add 1 T. sugar (optional). Serve over chiles
rellenos.
