RAJAS CON QUESO

Steps:

• Roast the chilies over an open flame or on a griddle until blackened but not charred. Wrap the chilies in a towel and place them in a plastic bag for about 10 minutes. Remove the chilies and with the help of a kitchen towel rub the skins off. The chilies should be firm. Cut them in 1/2-inch strips discarding all the seeds and the ribs. Do not rinse them. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chilies and the onions at the same time. Stir often. When everything is soft add all the sour cream and the chicken bouillon granules to taste. When the cream is hot turn off the burner and add the cheese. Cover immediately. Enjoy with warm tortillas and white rice.

LECHE ASADA CON QUESO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Pour water into a large baking pan (the baking dish will go inside this water bath). Melt sugar over low heat until it disolves completely and pour it into the baking dish. I use an 8" round Corelle souffle dish. Set aside. Mix all milks, vanilla, eggs and cream cheese in blender or food processor. Pour into prepared baking dish. Put dish in pan with water which should be about half way up the dish. Bake for about 40 mins or until tester comes out clean. Cool for about 30 mins then put in refrigerator overnight. Run knife around dish and shake pan to loosen, invert into a plate, pour cherry pie filling on top. Can also be made doubling recipe and using a bundt pan.
