I´m actually mexican and moved to US a year ago. My boyfriend is the vegan one and I´m always thinking ways to eat healthier and tastier together. Poblano peppers have an amazing flavor but they are hard to find. I wouldn't recommend to substitute them but if you are, Green peppers and tomatos together will do the job.
This is a very mexican and vegan recipe, hope you like it.
Sorry about the spelling. My boyfriend is not here to correct me!!!

Equipment:
Just one choping knife and a wok (or a 11" pan)
Ingredients
Two large sliced onions
Three peeled and sliced Poblano Pepers
Any kind and amount of mushrooms
1 cup of corn (if it's fresh, better cook it first)
1 ts. of oil or vegan margerine.
8 oz. Firm Tofu, cubed
Soy sauce (as desired)
Vegan cheese, if desired.
Soft tortillas, any kind.
Mexican Green sauce, lime, fres onion and a chopped handfull of Cilantro to serve
Directions
The easiest way to peal a poblano peper is grilling it directly in a gas grill. If not a litle bit of oil and toasting in a pan will do the work. After toasting dark the poblano pepers, put them in a plastic bag for about 15 minutes, so they can sweat and everything will come off easier. If you don't want to peel them is fine, but will be a little bit harder to digest. Also, if you don't like hot food, better remove the seeds. That is a major diference.
Heat the oil in a wok untill very hot. Add the onions and let them cook for about 3 min. Add the rest of the ingredients. Cook in medium heat untill everything is well cook and then turn the heat high to dry the ingredients. I preffer to overcook it a little, so everything get a stronger flavor.
Heat the tortillas in their plastic bag in the microwave. Add the cheese and fajitas when they are hot so it will melt the cheese.
Real mexicans will serve this with lime and fresh chopped onion and cilantro. A hot sauce is desirable. Enjoy. |

This turned out very well. We used jalapenos instead of poblanos, and red salsa instead of green sauce just because we made this on short notice. It was very satisfying and is going into my permanent recipe collection. |
