Name: Uncle Steve's Pop-N-Neros
Ingredients: 12 Whole Habanero chile pepper; (orange), stemmed; 1/2 lb Jack cheese; finely grated; 1 ts Fresh horseradish; (optional)*, finely grated; 2 tb Fresh cilantro; chopped fine; 1 tb Bacon bits; (fresh cooked); 1 c Instant pancake mix; 1/2 c Durum wheat flour; Water; Peanut oil

Arguably, the King James Version stands as the grandest of the English Bible translations. It has been dubbed a monument of literary translation, considered a sublime text. To be sure, for contemporary audiences the sublime prose can be confusing at times, more obscuring than helpful. Considering that it is nearly four hundred years old, however, it clearly has staying power. The King James Version also provides a good anchor for the history of the English Bible. It’s the result of nearly four centuries of work that led up to it, and has, for another four centuries, continued to cast its shadow. We can frame our history of the English Bible around it.

INGREDIENTS

12		Whole Habanero chile pepper; (orange), stemmed
1/2	lb	Jack cheese; finely grated
1	ts	Fresh horseradish; (optional)*, finely grated
2	tb	Fresh cilantro; chopped fine
1	tb	Bacon bits; (fresh cooked)
1	c	Instant pancake mix
1/2	c	Durum wheat flour
		Water
		Peanut oil

INSTRUCTIONS

Fry lean bacon to crispy and drain on paper towels. Great cheese fine.
Remove stems and chop cilantro leaves fine. Grate horseradish root fine.
Cut a small circular hole in the tops of peppers around the stem,
approximately. 3/8 inch, and remove stem and seeds core.
Mix cheese, horseradish, cilantro and bacon bits together. Stuff mixture
into chilies.
Put about a 1/2 inch or peanut oil in your favorite cast iron skillet and
heat to high, but not smoking. Other oils are OK and using a deep fat fryer
would work also.
Mix a thin pancake batter using approximate. double the amount of water
called for.
Plunge stuffed habs into batter and then roll in durum flour. After all 12
are coated repeat for a second time.
A lazy-man's alternative for the batter is to cut phyllo dough and wrap
each pepper. This method is not as messy, easier, faster and still taste
great.
Cook only 2-3 at a time to keep the oil hot. Cook each side for 30-45
seconds (flip gently with a fork), until golden tan, not brown. Serve hot.
I find it hard to eat one whole Habanero Chile fresh and ripe off the
plant. But I can usually eat 5-6 of these critters at a sitting. The seed
removal, cooking and cheese seem to make the "heat" level more tolerable
(at least for me).
*Alternate filling ingredients: Horseradish can be over powering and "kill"
the flavor of the other ingredients some times. You can leave it out or
substitute cumin, celery seed, garlic etc. Experiment, it's the fun part of
cooking!... Or is it the eating? Enjoy!!
