OKay, If I had dinner on Saturday, February 20th, who can come, and are you willing to try my Mole Recipe? or Chile Rellenos?.....If you're game for either then let me know that too. I'm still not sure how this whole blogging thing works. I don't think you all get updates every time I post something new, so I think you all have to check in regularly. I see some of you have chosen to follow my blog, which I think is pretty cool. I'm soooo not tech savvy, thank goodness for Steve, my own techie guy....it's a good trade off. He helps me with the computer and I promise to include him in all the dinner parties...LOL!! A match made in heaven wouldn't you agree?...Anyhow, Back to food...
I've been wanting to make my mother's famous chile rellenos. I've been making these for a few year's and every time I make them I put my own twist on them. She always uses Anaheim chile's but I've experimented with Pasilla chiles and I actually like to use these over their slimmer cousin, the Anaheim chile. I've stuffed them with cheese, meat, and vegetables and all the combinations are quite tasty. I love the smokey flavor that works it's magic with all the other items tucked inside these spicy pockets. Pasilla chile's aren't very spicy, however, they are spicy enough to leave a tingle on one's tongue. Hmmmm.
I've given it some thought and here are the menu options. Let me know your thoughts on either.
Menu options:
#1. Mole con Pollo (chicken) served over a mound of Cilantro Lime White Rice with a side of warm garlic spinach salad and fresh homemade flour tortillas. To be followed by pomegranite/cherry sorbet with a sprig of mint.
#2. Pasilla chile rellenos filled with season vegetables, cheese and pork. Drizzled with a light creamy pomegranite sauce, a side of mexican rice and fresh pinto beans, not fried, just fresh and yummy. Followed by dessert which will be a cherry sorbet topped with a homemade caramel sauce.
Okay friends, let me know if you'd like to savor some mole or chile rellenos. If you're interested in coming over on the 20th....
From my casita to yours,
Besos y sabores...
Will work for food! Both sound great to me!
