I was originally going to make Chile Rellenos but I ran out of time. I made Rajas and added them to the Picadillo that was going to be the pepper stuffing. I didn't take a photo of that because I was too hungry. It came out great.

Edit: You char all sides of the pepper. Then you let it steam in a bag for 10-15 minutes. This allows you to remove the char and you are left with a pleasantly smokey and flavorful pepper.

Sounds tasty! Do you have a recipe?

Okay I found one that's very close.

I don't add cumin or cloves but I do use a little marjoram and thyme. I also don't soak the peppers in vinegar. The dish I know always uses the tomato sauce as a topping and little oregano as garnish.

I hope you like it.

It's one of my favorite Mexican dishes. I don't because I learned it from my mother. Give me a bit and I'll try to find one similar to what I know.
