Is there a category for those of us in the West?

Okay here's one:


Chilaquiles In Green Sauce

24 medium corn tortillas, cut in triangles
Corn Oil
1 & 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 pound Oaxaca cheese, shredded
( or substitute Mozzarella)

Sauce
30 tomatillos, peeled & chopped
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
6 serrano chiles
1/2 onion, chopped
Salt
2 TBLSP. corn oil

Sauce

To make the sauce, puree all the ingredients except the oil with salt to taste. Saute the puree in very hot oil until the flavors blend and the sauce has thickened.

Fry the tortilla triangles in hot oil until golden and drain on a brown paper bag
Cover the bottom of an oven proof casserole with a small amount of sauce and cream. Top with half of the fried tortillas. Layer with half of the remaining sauce, half of the remaining cream, and half of the cheese. Top with the remaining tortillas, sauce, cream, and cheese. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes, or until the sauce is very hot and the cheese topping is puffy and golden.
