Who of you great cooks know how to make these peppers...the white ones for sure? The sauce is what makes then taste so good. Maybe some kind of Soy sauce?

Alex...
I am sure someone said welcomed just in case Welcome to the Nomads...thanks for the recipe, but what is "maggi"?
Also by naked do you mean heat the skin and peel it or deep fried just the way they are? I seem to remember a skin, but I am not sure. I have CRS

Thanks Grover...confused over the spaces though...do you mean the brackets should be tight to img in the browse box?
After typing it I am sure that is right:biggrin: Just a little slow on the up take:lol:


NOT the browse box:biggrin:

Hi -
Thanks for the first Welcome Al! By naked - I mean straight as they are - nothing added until after they are fried.

Maggi is a seasoning http://www.maggitusaborlatino.com/products/seasoning_sauces....

Provecho and good luck!

A Quick Deep Fry in Very Hot Oil

To loosen the skin and to keep the meaty part of the chile from turning mushy. It is faster and doesn't leave the black char marks from the traditional griddle method that some people find unappealing.

Then you season them just out of the fryer and still hot.

The white chiles are called "gueros", at least here in Rosarito.

I make these back home all the time, very popular. I just fry or grill the peppers with a bit of EVOO, then once the skin is browned, and they are softened, (works best to cover ) i put them in a bowl and add soy and maggi, then let them marinate a bit. Nothing beats the original, of course, but who has a deep fryer anymore???

Success!!!

This is great...my first batch turned out good, except they got a little soft. Here is a tip...after I finished the peppers, I had about 12 medium mushrooms so I put the in the pepper oil. When they turned brown, I let them sit in the marinade with the peppers. The peppers were a little caliente for my guest...they did eat one each and said they had great flavor. They raved about the mushrooms as they picked the pepper flavor and some heat. BTW the peppers were not too hot...I eat 6-7 of them, but they only left me one mushroom...:light::lol::lol::lol: Avery good evening:wow:
