Steps:

• 1. WHOLE ROASTED AND PEELED GREEN CHILIES CHEESE CUT INTO LONG THIN STRIPS THAT WILL FIT INTO THE CHILIES. USE JACK, CHEDDAR, OR MEXICAN MELTING CHEESE
• 2. Beat the egg whites until stiff in a medium mixing bowl. Beat the yolks in a separate bowl. Fold the yolks, flour and cornmeal into the whites.
• 3. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a wide high sided skillet to about 375 F. Cut a slit in the chilies and fill with cheese. Dip each chili into the egg white batter and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry a few at a time, do not crowd the pan. Cook until golden brown, turning once or twice, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately. The batter can be doubled. This amount will coat about 8 chilies.
