So today has been a really hot day here in the valley. We spent our sunday being lazy and not straying far from our little window A/C. Dinner time rolled around and I was hesitant as to what to do. I didn't want to order out and I didn't want to spend too much time in the kitchen. So i scrolled through pinterest. Nothing was appealing to my hungry tummy until i stumble on an old pin. Rajas con crema. I didn't have any rajas which is basically sliced poblano peppers that have been grilled and peeled of their skin and sliced. That is too much work. So I changed the recipe around to suit my needs. It came out soooo good! I call it Veggies con Crema. Here it is!
you will need:
two tomatoes
one small onion
two jalapenos
two small zucchini
one large green bell pepper
two cups of sour cream or greek yogurt or salvadorean or mexican crema
salt and pepper at preference
butter or oil for cooking the veggies
one cup of cooked white or mexican rice
****in a small pan roast jalapenos slightly, you don't want them to get too spicy
1. heat butter or oil in a pan at medium heat and saute the onion and tomato until the onion is soft and almost translucent. I added a bit of salt.
2.add the bell pepper and zucchini chopped to your preference (i cut into slices and cut those slices into big chunks)
3. while those veggies are cooking cut your jalapenos in half and take out seeds. chop into little squares.
4. add jalapeno to rest of veggies
5. pour in your cream ( i did one cup of salvadorean cream and one cup of greek yogurt.)
6. I added more salt and some black pepper
7. put fire on low and let it simmer until it starts to bubble. (uncovered)
8. you are done! serve over rice and enjoy! really it was so good!
