Aubergine Rellenos And Teeth Recipe
- 1 x Aubergine sliced into 6 thick slices
- 3/4 c. Bread Crumbs (Extra sour sourdough works best.. gives a cheezy flavor)
- 1 x Egg substitute
- 3/4 c. Nonfat lowfat milk
- 3 x California Green Chilies roasted and pealed or possibly one small can (4 ounce) Salsa (Recipe below or possibly your favorite chile relleno sauce) Fat free cheese (Optional)
- 2 can (14-ounce) Hominy
- 4 c. Diced tomatoes (or possibly 3 c. canned.. works but not quite as well)
- 1/2 x Onion Chilis (1-2 California Chilis roasted and pealed if you can find them canned if not, 1 - 2 Japaleno chilis if desired extra fire.)
- 1 Tbsp. Minced cilantro, or possibly to taste. If you hate cilantro leave it out Salt to taste
- I got these recipes from this web site: Linkname: Gourmet World Light
- This is an attempt to capture some of the flavor of chile rellenos without any of the grease.
- While making aubergine parmasan I suddenly had the stupid idea of stuffing the things with chiles and possibly some low fat cheese.
- Well it worked and my husband loves the dish.
- There are three things in this dish that must be adjusted to your own tastes, the salt, chile, and cilantro( fresh corriander, chinese parsley).
- I love cilantro, my husband is not too fond of it.
- The recipe calls for less than I prefer but I serve some minced on the side.
- Fresh roasted pealed chilies are always better than canned but where I live are not often found.
- Canned hominy was always called teeth in this house.
- The California chilis I refer to are sometimes called Anaheim Chiles.
- Salt aubergine and drain about 30 min.
- While draining cut deep pockets in the side of each piece and if you have a fat free cheese which is edible available put about 1/2 ounce in each pocket.
- I like mine without the cheese.
- Then, stuff about half a pepper in each pocket.
- Remember to remove the pepper seeds if desired your peppers on the mild side.
- Wisk the egg substitute and lowfat milk.
- Dip each aubergine slice first in the lowfat milk mix, then in flour, back into the lowfat milk mix and finally into the bread crumbs.
- Place on nonstick cookie tray and bake till the aubergine is very soft (about 30 min at 350 degrees) Dump the hominy and its liquid into a pot and boil while the aubergine is cooking.
- This step is optional but it softens the hominy and I prefer it which way.
- When the aubergine is done drain the hominy and dump it on a platter, arrange the aubergine on top.
- Top with heated salsa (below) and garnish with minced green onions or possibly cilantro.
- I like fat free lowfat sour cream with these thimgs, hubby prefers them without.
- Salsa for Aubergine Rellenos: Put everything in a food processor and whirl it for a minute.
- Then put into pot, bring to a boil and simmer for about 5 min.
- Serve warm.
