    It was a hit in China

    couldn't stand not really knowing everything that I was eating broke down and cooked for my friends

    as told in Chinglish


    stuffed chili

    take 15 green chilis, test first for spicy
    boil until tender soft about 30 minutes

    take 5 chicken eggs and seperate yokes and whites

    beat whites with whip until firm

    cool chilis with cold water and remove seeds

    put yellow and white cheese slices into each chili

    place a plate with about 2 cups of wheat flour

    mix whites and yellows together still using a whip

    heat a pan with some oil

    roll stuffed chili in the flour then dip into eggs

    place into heated pan and cook until egg is done
    as cooking the cheese melts

    remove

    cook all chilis

    can be eaten with kuaizi but a fork is more traditional




    now for American substitions

    a can of Ortega Green chilis works best but wash and remove seeds

    Colby Jack works best with a little Motzarella

    Whip whites until meringue firmness


    eat with salsa

    about 3 chilis per egg

    EEK some more corrections

    oh yes Chilli Rellenos that is what they are called.....The recipe was taught to me by my MOM

    Ortega whole green chillis are quite tame in comparison to the first set of chillis that I tried..hence the addition of the taste test first....Whoa

    the whole egg is used , the whites are whipped then the yokes are added to the whites after being beat some


    next trip it will be Taco's as I couldn't remember how to make a tortilla..much less find Manteca Lard...

    Rolling my eyes things don't go to waste

    they went to my waist....


    I ate the following items:

    Salmon sashimi style
    Halibut sashimi style

    Beef mostly cut thin slices served in a sauce with mushrooms
    then hot pot style

    Pork spare ribs, meat deep fried served with pineapple, pig tail yes there is meat. pig brain no flavor but texture of pudding,

    Fish with bones tiny bones I hate bones the fish meat tasted good when there were no bones

    Chicken no feet or heads but legs thighs breast and parts they have KFC but not the same

    duck meat only and I think a half a head

    goose intestine and feet

    frog legs



    the veggies I nick named weeds...long story...

    I developed the don't ask don't tell policy,, if it tasted good I ate more if the taste or visual image didn't match I only had a bite

    I ate well to well

    the best is the roadside market cooks that serve a sweet bread stuffed with vegatables or meat.

    I had to bribe my translators with Rellenos to completly avoid the delicacy of dog
