DEEP-FRIED STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Cut a short slit in the side of each jalapeno. Carefully scrape out as many seeds as possible, but avoid tearing or enlarging the slit. Stuff each of 8 jalapenos with about 1 teaspoon of refried beans. Stuff 8 more jalapenos with about 1 teaspoon peanut butter each. (The capacity of individual chiles will vary, but they should not be so full that the slits gape open.) Insert 1 strip of cheese into each of the 8 remaining chiles. On a plate, mix together the cornmeal, flour, and salt. In a small bowl, thoroughly whisk the eggs. One at a time, dip the jalapenos into the beaten egg and then roll them in the cornmeal mixture until well coated. Let the jalapenos stand on a rack for 30 minutes to firm the coating. In a deep fryer or in a wide, deep pan fitted with a deep-fry thermometer, heat about 4 inches of corn oil (the fryer or pan should be no more than half full) to 375 degrees. Working in batches and using a slotted spoon, lower the jalapenos into the hot oil. Fry, turning the chiles gently, until they are just crisp and golden, about 4 minutes. (Overcooking the chiles may cause the fillings to boil away.) With the slotted spoon, transfer the fried jalapenos to absorbent paper. Keep the chiles warm in a 250 degree oven until all have been fried. Serve them hot or warm, accompanied by sour cream for dipping.

BREADED JALAPEñOS

Steps:

• In a 6-quart saucepan, combine jalapeños, vinegar and 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until jalapeños are tender but not soft, 15 to 20 minutes depending on size. Drain and rinse with cold water. Using a small knife, make a slit along the side of each jalapeño. Keeping jalapeños as intact as possible, carefully remove and discard stems and seeds.
• Using a blunt knife or small spoon, spread 1 tablespoon peanut butter inside each jalapeño, pressing the opening closed. (Do not overlap edges.)
• Spread flour in a wide shallow bowl and roll filled jalapeños to coat them well, roll in egg, then roll in bread crumbs. Set aside on a plate.
• In a large skillet, add enough oil to come about 3/4 inch up the side. Place over medium-high heat until oil is shimmering. Working in batches, fry jalapeños until well browned and crisp on the undersides, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn and brown the other side. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve hot.
