Ingredients:
1 stephen ceideburg
6 fresh pasilla (poblano) chiles, ana, heims or pimie
1/2 cup grated fontina cheese
1/2 cup grated monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup grated jarisberg cheese
1 cup grated white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated asiago or parmesan cheese
12 cilantro sprigs
1 avocado salsa:
2 ripe avocados
1/2 to 1 jalapeno chile, roasted, seede, d and mince
1/2 small red onion, minced
3 scallions, minced (white part and 2, inches of green
3 tbsp roughly chopped cilantro
2 tbsp rice vinegar
6 tbsp olive oil
1 kosher or sea salt
1 freshly ground pepper
Instructions:
Prepare the chiles by cutting all the way around the stem so that you
can remove the stem and seed base in 1 piece. Keeping the stem and
top intact, trim off any seeds and membranes, and if any get left
behind in the pepper, remove them, too. Blanch the chiles for 2
minutes in lightly salted boiling water. Remove the chiles, refresh
in ice water, and drain.
Combine the grated cheeses in a bowl and mix well. Stuff each chile
with about 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture. Do not overstuff or pack
the cheese in too densely. Replace the stem and top of the chile.
Cook on a grill over a medium fire, turning frequently until the
cheeses are melted and the chiles are hot all the way through.
Avocado Salsa: Cut each avocado in half. Remove the seed, make
dice-sized crisscrosses in the avocado flesh with a knife, and scoop
out the dice with a spoon. Place in a mixing bowl and add the chile,
onion, scallions and chopped cilantro. Whisk together the vinegar and
oil in a separate bowl, add salt and pepper to taste, and pour over
the avocado mixture. Mix gently, being careful not to mash the
avocado or the salsa will look like guacamole and taste "muddy."
Place on a bed of Avocado Salsa and garnish with the cilantro sprigs.
