Makes 8 chiles
1. Place chiles on a hot grill or griddle. Turn until the skin is blacked and blistered, then remove, place in a bowl, and cover with plastic wrap to steam the skins.
2. Once chiles are cool, peel the skin off carefully and slit the chiles from top to bottom. Gently rinse off seeds.
3. To make the filling, pulse the two cheeses and cilantro in a food processor until fully combined. Put 4 oz. of cheese mixture into each chile and form back into natural chile shape.
4. To make the batter, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whip egg whites in a mixing bowl until stiff. Place yolks in a separate bowl and whip until foamy, about 3 minutes. Fold egg yolks, flour, and salt into stiff egg whites.
5. To prepare, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat oil in a saute pan on medium heat.
6. Run one relleno through batter and place in hot pan, then pour 1/4 cup of batter over it. The relleno should resemble an omelet. Make sure not to crowd the pan, cooking only one or two at a time. Cook for two minutes, then turn and cook for an additional two minutes. Place relleno pan in oven and bake for 3 more minutes.
7. Plate each relleno on warmed red chile sauce and a bed of rice. Top with onion and radish to taste.
