- 3 eggs, separated
- 1 Tbsp water
- 3 Tbsp flour

Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 deg.
Place peppers on baking sheet under the broiler and turn until skin is black. Place peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic for about one hour. Remove plastic and peel skin off peppers. Remove tops and seeds.
Place two slices of Muenster cheese in each pepper and sprinkle peppers with flour.
Beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Beat the yolks with the water, 3 Tbsp flour and salt until thick and creamy. Fold yolk mixture into the whites.
Heat about 1/2" of vegetable oil in a pan, dip the chiles into the egg mixture, and fry in oil until brown on each side. Remove from pan and drain on paper towel. Spray baking pan with cooking spray and place chiles in pan. Cover with canned diced chiles with mild jalapeno peppers.
Bake at 350 deg for about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for about 5 minutes before serving.
