BAKED VEGAN CHILI RELLENOS RECIPE - (3.6/5)

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. Broil the chilies until the skins brown and pucker. Place the peppers in a brown paper bag to cool; then peel while still warm. Cut a 3-inch slit in each chili and remove the seeds, if desired. Stuff each chili with cheese. Pour the soy milk in a shallow bowl. Spread the panko/corn starch/flour corn meal on a plate or a shallow bowl. Add the spices and mix well. Dip the chilies in the panko/corn starch/flour/corn meal mixture, then the milk and then the panko/corn starch/flour/corn meal mixture again. Place the chilies on the prepared baking sheet and bake 25 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown (I flipped the chilies the last 5 minutes to brown on the other side). Chili Relleno Sauce- Chop the onion and garlic together in a food processor. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Sauté the onion and garlic mixture in the oil until translucent and golden. Add the flour or corn starch to the sauté mixture, spreading the mixture evenly as it cooks, until a deep golden color. Place the mixture into the food processor with the tomatoes and jalapeño pepper; process until smooth. Pour the pureed mixture back into the saucepan. Stir in the water, salt, Mexican oregano, black pepper, cayenne pepper and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil, while whisking. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about an hour, whisking occasionally, until the desired consistency is reached. Cover, slightly vented so the steam can escape. Keep the sauce warm over lowest heat, whisking occasionally, until served.

BAKED CHILES RELLENOS

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Roast peppers on the top rack of the preheated oven until the skins are charred, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and allow to cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Set the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• While peppers are cooling, whisk eggs, flour, milk, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl until smooth. Slice the queso fresco into eight even rectangles, just shorter than the length of the peppers.
• Carefully peel off the waxy skin of the cooled peppers. Gently cut a slit down the length of the peppers and use a spoon to remove the seeds and membranes.
• Spread about 1/4 cup of the milk mixture on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Wrap each pepper around a queso fresco rectangle. Place each chile/cheese wrap seam-side down in a single layer in the baking dish. Cover with remaining egg mixture. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the egg mixture has risen and the cheese is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
