Steps:
- In a wide frying pan, heat oil over medium low heat until it shimmers. Reduce heat to low and add tomatoes, garlic, chilies, onions and cumin. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick, about 30 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Preheat oven to 400. Butter a 9 x 13 glass pan. In a large bowl, combine chicken, cheddar, sour cream and salt. Stir in tomato mixture. Pour into the pan.
- Working quickly with the Phyllo, lay one sheet at a time over the chicken tomato mixture and brush thinly but thoroughly with melted butter. Continue until you're almost out of butter, then lay the last piece of phyllo and brush with butter. With a sharp knife, cut down thru layers of phyllo to make nine evenly spaced rectangular servings.
- Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until filling is hot and phyllo is golden brown. Serve immediately.
GERMAN STRUDELS
This is an old family recipe of my aunt's. Almost all of my relatives are German and this is one of the original recipes used for family dinners! Especially good with chicken and cream gravy. You can also make them to the point after rolling and cutting and freeze on cookie sheets, then transfer to plastic bags.

Steps:
- Combine yeast, salt, sugar, water, egg, and flour to make dough.
- Divide the dough into small balls.
- Let rest for a while.
- Roll balls to about 1/4 inch thick and spread with warm oil.
- Let the dough rest for a few minutes so the dough will stretch easily, then stretch the dough paper thin.
- Once the dough is stretched, roll it like you would for cinnamon rolls.
- Cut the dough (which is rolled up like a snake now) into 3 inch lengths.
- Coat roaster or heavy pan (you can also use and electric frying pan) with shortening or oil, put as many diced potatoes and onions as you like and season with salt and pepper.
- Add water to cover the potatoes and bring to a boil.
- Once water is boiling lay strudels on top of potatoes in two layers.
- Water should nearly cover strudels.
- COVER TIGHTLY-THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT OR RECIPE WILL NOT WORK!
- YOU CANNOT PEEK OR THE STRUDELS WILL "FALL"!
- Cook over low heat 30 to 35 minutes, or until you can hear a slight "frying" noise in the pan.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to cut your chicken and vegetables evenly. This will also help ensure that your strudel cooks evenly.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken can become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
- Use a good quality puff pastry: The quality of your puff pastry will make a big difference in the final product. Look for a puff pastry that is made with real butter and that is not too thick.
- Chill the strudel before baking: This will help the puff pastry to rise properly and prevent it from becoming soggy.
