| 1. Separate eggs. | 2. Beat egg whites until very firm. | 3. In small bowl, mix flour, water, and egg yolks together with a fork or spoon. | 4. Fold yolk mixture into egg whites (tip: pre-mix some egg white with yolk mixture first -- amount fits in small bowl, fold into egg white bowl). | 5. Slice brick of Jack cheese into long wedges. Stuff 6 whole chiles with cheese wedges, being careful not to break the chile. Dice and reserve any remaining for sauce. | 6. Heat oil in large fry pan. | 7. Spoon batter into the hot oil -- this is the "bed" for a stuffed chile in the next step. | 8. When batter is cooked enough to support a whole chile, lay a stuffed chile on the "bed". Spoon more batter on top of chile to cover -- this is now a chile relleno. | 9. Spoon some hot oil over the relleno in order to firm batter (i.e., to cook the top of the chile relleno to make it stable for turning). | 10. Flip the relleno over and cook until golden. | 11. Place cooked relleno on large platter and keep warm while you repeat these steps for each stuffed chile. | 12. Once all the rellenos are done, continue to keep warm while you prepare the sauce. | 13. Sauce: | 14. Cook onions in butter in saucepan. | 15. Add a tablespoon of flour, cooking for a minute or two. | 16. Add chicken stock and chili sauce and bring to the boil. Add remaining chopped green chilies or optional diced chiles to sauce at this time. | 17. Pour sauce over rellenos and serve with shredded cheese and sour cream. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
