Mexican Recipes – World Class Dishes In Your Kitchen!

Here are two **Must Try** Mexican recipes! They are HOT, tasty and so easy!

Chiles Rellenos Meatballs

12 small potatoes, or 2 large baking potatoes

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 pound ground beef

1/2 pound Anaheim chili peppers

1/2 cup yellow onions -- minced

4 eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

black pepper -- to taste

garlic salt -- to taste

*Anaheim chilies, roasted, peeled and diced.

Peel and boil potatoes until just tender. Let potatoes cool. In a large bowl break up potatoes to make a lumpy mixture, do not mash. Saute ground beef in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil until browned, drain well. Add beef to potatoes then add chiles, chopped onion and egg yolks.

Add seasonings (salt, pepper, and garlic salt). Mix and form into egg-shaped balls about 1-1/2 inches long. Dip each ball in egg whites (beaten slightly) then roll in flour. At medium heat, cook in vegetable oil about 1/4-inch deep. Brown well, then drain on paper towels. Serve hot, at room temperature, or refrigerate and reheat at serving time.

Note: Both Mexican Recipes yields between 4 to 6 servings.

**Our** Family Secret Salsa

(shhhttt… It’s one of my secret Mexican recipes)

Tomatoes -- quartered

2 cloves garlic

1/4 medium yellow onion -- coarse chop

3 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon cumin

salt -- to taste

1 cup cilantro -- chopped

6 whole jalapeno peppers, fresh -- to taste

4 whole habaneros peppers, fresh -- optional

Fill blender with tomatoes, run at lowest setting until no large chunks are left. Add remainder of ingredients and repeat running blender until no large chunks are left. Sample and add items to taste as necessary.

If you're not sure how something will affect you in the quantity given, use the smallest unit of it at first, then progressively add more until you are satisfied. This is really important with the habaneros. The salsa will be at its hottest right after you make it, but will cool down the longer it sets.
