Steps

2 hours
  1. 1

    In a saucepan, bring the 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the chiles and let them soak for a while.

  2. 2

    Once the chiles have softened, remove the seeds and veins, then let them drain. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cut the cheese into pieces and place one piece inside each chile. Carefully close each chile with a toothpick so they don't break.

  4. 4

    Spread some flour on a plate and lightly coat each chile with flour. Set aside.

  7. 7

    Blend the tomatoes, garlic, onion, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon stick, and the water used to soak the chiles. Be careful not to use the last bit of water, as it may contain dirt or seeds that you don't want in the blender.

  9. 9

    Serve a portion of rice and a stuffed chile on a plate. Pour the tomato sauce over the chile and enjoy.
