Beyond Tacos: Mexican Traditional 1

In this series we’ll be tackling some fantastic traditional Mexican recipes while while widely popular south of the border are not always as well known here in the US and not always found on Mexican restaurants. This is in part due to the more complex nature of the recipes which require more time to create.
In this first class we’ll be working together to create one of my personal favorite recipes: Chilli Relenos, which is made with roasted poblano peppers stuffed with cheese, dipped in a fluffy egg batter and fried until golden brown. To accompany this dish we’ll also create the relleno sauce which is a savory, lightly spiced tomato based red sauce.
Our second endeavor during the class will be to make a Mexican Flan, which is a rich baked egg custard dessert coated in a smooth, liquid caramel sauce.
