Gordos Frijoles Con Queso Recipes

Steps:

• Roast the poblanos and Anaheim chiles on a hot grill until charred. Let them sit in a sealed container for 10 minutes, then peel them and cut into strips.
• Heat the oil, then saute the onion with the jalapenos and serranos until soft, about 10 minutes.
• Blend the cream cheese with 3 cups water and add it to the pot of chiles. Add the roasted peppers, salt, pepper and cumin. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Fill Gorditas with finished product. Top with shredded cheese and serve with Refried Beans.
• For the gorditas: In a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the flour, baking powder and salt; mix to combine. Add the shortening and mix for about 5 minutes. Slowly add the warm water and milk; mix until the dough is firm but soft and won't stick to your fingers. (You might not use all the liquid, or you might need to add more.) Let rest for 10 minutes.
• Portion the dough out into 2.2-ounce balls and refrigerate overnight.
• Press the dough balls into tortillas by hand. Toast the tortillas on a griddle over medium-high heat. Slice open the tortillas.
• In a pot over medium heat place pinto beans, salt and 6 cups cold water, and let simmer until softened, about an hour.
• In a pan, heat canola oil, then add 3 cups pinto beans (save the remainder for another use) and stir for about 5 minutes. Add warm water and let simmer, about 10 minutes. Use a hand blender to blend until pureed.

Steps:

• Put beans and water in a large pot, cover and simmer, stirring often, until tender - about 2 1/2 hours.
• About 1 1/2 into cooking time, add salt to taste.
• If the beans need more water before they are done, add boiling water to the pot - do not add cold water!
• When the beans are tender, there should not be much liquid in the pot.
• If there is a lot of liquid, take some of it out and either save it in case you need it.
• Add the 1/2 cup of lard to the now tender beans.
• Simmer uncovered - very slowly - for 1/2 hour.
• Watch it carefully and stir often.
• If the beans get too dry, add some of the reserved liquid if you have any, or add a bit of water.
• Add the cheddar cheese.
• Cook until it melts.
• Serve it up.
• If you'd like, you can make the meat garnish as follpws:.
• Cook up the hamburger until browned.

• Serve over the beans with the lettuce.
• You can also add tortillas and make tacos.

Steps:

• Mezcla la masa harina, el agua y los frijoles con las manos hasta formar una masa; forma 12 bolitas de 2 pulgs. de diámetro. Tápalas con una toalla húmeda hasta el momento de usar.
• Aplasta cada bolita hasta formar un disco de 5 pulgs. Pon 2 cdas. de queso al centro de cada disco y encierra completamente el relleno, juntando la masa por arriba y presionando los bordes para sellarla del todo. Luego, aplasta las bolitas rellenas para formar gorditas de 4 pulgs.
• Calienta a fuego medio-alto una sartén grande o comal rociado con aceite en aerosol. Añade las gorditas; cocínalas de 2 a 3 min. por lado o hasta que estén ligeramente infladas. Sírvelas con crema agria y salsa encima.

Steps:

• Soak the beans in cold water overnight. Drain and place into a large saucepan with the onion, thyme and bay leaves and cover with 8 cups of water. Bring to the boil and then continue to boil for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour, partially covered, or until the beans are tender.
• Drain the cooked beans and remove the bay leaves and any thyme stalks.
• Roast the capsicums under a very hot grill or in the flames of a gas burner until blackened all over. Place in a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the capsicums to steam for 10 minutes then peel off the skin, cut in half and remove the stalk and seeds. Place the capsicum flesh in a food processor and blend to a purée.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat and sauté garlic for 1 minute. Stir in the jalapeno peppers and then the capsicum purée, beans, crushed tomatoes and salt, and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Lower the heat to very low. Toss the cheese with the flour and add to the stew gradually, stirring constantly until well blended. Serves 8 with the shredded beef and ale chilli, or 4-6 on its own.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except cilantro in a small saucepan, and heat just until cheese melts.
• (Microwave Directions: place in a microwaveable dish and heat for 2-3 minutes.).
• Top with chopped cilantro if desired and serve with chips.
