Chile Balls


Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped roasted Green Chiles, peeled, stems and seeds removed.
  • 1 lbs lean ground pork
  • 1/4 cup chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup sugar (Note: experiment with this. I'm starting out with 1/4 cup)
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 3 Tablespoons flour
  • 1 tsp salt (Maybe less??)
  • flour for dredging
  • oil for frying

Directions
  1. Brown the pork, add the onions and saute until the onions are soft.
  2. Stir in the chiles, raisins and sugar.
  3. Beat the egg whites until they form peaks.
  4. Combine the flour and egg yokes and mix thoroughly.
  5. Fold the egg egg yoke mixture into the egg whites and combine to form a batter.
  6. Take about 1 teaspoon of mixture, roll it into the flour and shape into 1 inch balls.
  7. Dip the chile balls into the batter and deep fry in 350 deg oil until golden brown. Remember the balls continue to cook after you take them out, so don't over cook them.
  8. Drain them on paper towels.
