CHEESE-STUFFED ANAHEIM PEPPERS
I found this delicious appetizer on another recipe site as I was looking for a way to use up the abundance of anaheim peppers I have growing in my garden. I brought this to a friend's house and it was a big hit. We used serrano peppers for the red and green hot chili peppers called for in the recipe and cilantro for the fresh herb. We served atop baked pita chips. Prep time includes time to chill in fridge.

- Lightly coat outside of peppers with a little oil (using pastry brush or hands).

Steps:
- Place pork in a large, heavy pot. Sprinkle with salt. Add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pork is brown, about 1 1/2 hours (when water has evaporated, pork will brown in its fat). Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place chiles directly over the flame of a gas-stove burner on high heat. Roast, turning with tongs, until blackened all over. (Alternatively, broil chiles on a baking sheet, turning, until skin has charred.) Transfer chiles to a large bowl, and cover immediately with plastic wrap. Set aside to steam, about 15 minutes. Peel chiles; discard skins. With stems intact, slit each chile lengthwise; carefully remove seeds and veins. Place, slit side up, on a baking sheet.
- Spread 2 tablespoons cheese in bottom of each chile, then fill with 1/3 cup pork. Sprinkle chiles with remaining 2 cups cheese. Spoon 1 tablespoon tomatillo sauce over top of each chile. Bake 15 minutes. Garnish with cilantro; serve with tortillas and remaining tomatillo sauce.
