These crispy tortillas are stuffed with green chiles, cheese and corn for a wonderful array of texture and flavor.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 16 small flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup canned green chiles (or roasted, peeled and seeded green chiles coarsely chopped)
  • 1 cup jack cheese
  • 1 cup sweet corn, frozen and thawed or canned
  • 1/2 cup green chile sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

PREPARATION:

Mix chiles, cheese, chile sauce, corn and sugar in a medium bowl. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling down center of a tortilla and roll it up tightly. Secure with a toothpick and place seam side down on a plate. Roll up all of the flautas and fry 3 or 4 at a time in 350 degree hot oil until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.
