Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 unpeeled baking potatoes, scrubbed
6 poblano chiles, roasted and peeled
3 avocados, peeled, pitted, and coarsely mashed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns, freshly ground
Fine sea salt to taste
Roasted Garlic Cloves
18 plump garlic cloves
1 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon olive oil
Marinade
1 1/2 cups water
3 small cones piloncillo (Mexican raw sugar), crushed with a meat mallet, or 6 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large yellow onion, halved, peeled, and thinly sliced
2 cups cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
8 cloves
6 allspice berries
4 bay leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and add lightly salted water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the potatoes are tender about 30 minutes. Drain and let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel the potatoes and place in a medium bowl. Mash the potatoes, leaving them a bit lumpy
  • 2. Make a lengthwise cut in each chile and remove the seeds. Combine the mashed potatoes, avocados, olive oil, and ground peppercorns in a medium bowl and season with the salt. Stuff the chiles with the potato mixture. Place in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
  • 3. To roast the garlic: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Bring the garlic and milk to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then boil for 3 minutes, taking care that the milk does not boil over. Drain the garlic in a sieve, discarding the milk. In a small bowl, toss the garlic cloves in the olive oil. Spread the garlic in a single layer on a baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil. Roast until tender and golden, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
  • 4. To make the marinade: Bring the water and piloncillo or brown sugar to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Boil, stirring often, until the sugar is dissolved and the water is reduced to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • 5. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 1 minute. Add the sugar water, vinegar, oregano, peppercorns, cloves, allspice, and bay leaves and bring to a simmer (do not boil). Remove from the heat, add the roasted garlic, and let cool completely. Pour the marinade over the chiles, cover, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to 12 hours.
  • 6. To serve, remove the chiles from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature. Place a single chile on each plate, along with some of the marinade, including some of the onion and garlic cloves.

I had a hard time finding poblano chiles at my local grocery store. I ended up using bell peppers instead and they turned out fine.

I'm not usually a fan of poblano chiles, but these stuffed chiles were delicious. The filling was perfectly seasoned and the avocado and potatoes were a great addition.

These stuffed poblano chiles were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better with a spicier filling.
