Jalapeños con Queso en Vinagre (Jalapeños with Cheese in Vinegar)

Instructions

Peel the peppers like poblanos: roast in the flame of a stove and then put in a plastic bag for at least 20 minutes; hold under water while peeling them.** Cut one side of peppers and take out the seeds, reserving 1 tsp. of the seeds. Fill with a little amount of cheese and use a toothpick to close the peppers.

In the vegetable oil fry the onion slices, carrot slices and peppers just long enough to soften them. Add vinegar and spices and a tsp. of seeds. Let boil only 3 or 4 minutes. Let cool. Use immediately or keep in glass jars.

*The cheese needs to be white, fresh and able to resist the warm temperature without melting.

**This peeling is optional.

The length of time you can keep these depends on the kind of cheese you use.

Variations: You can add cloves of garlic and cauliflower, or add the spices you like. If you add more ingredients, you need also to add more vinegar and oil; the peppers and vegetables need to be covered with oil and vinegar. This recipe is a basic recipe; you can make changes as you like.
