PIMIENTOS RELLENOS

Another popular dish among Hispanic families in the Philippines is stuffed peppers-part of the traditional Spanish cuisine, especially that of the regions of the Basque Country and Cataluna. Usually piquillo peppers are used. The fillings vary from Manchego cheese, to beef or cod in a béchamel sauce.

Mexican cuisine has more than one stuffed pepper dish:
The Chile relleno, literally "stuffed pepper", consists of a roasted green Pasilla or poblano peppers stuffed with cheese (traditionally queso fresco), and/or (occasionally) minced meat, covered in an egg batter, and fried. It is often served covered with a sauce, although the type of sauce varies widely. It is sometimes also served in a taco with rice, salsa and other toppings.

Jalapeño poppers are jalapeño peppers that have been hollowed out, stuffed with a mixture of cheese, spices, and sometimes ground meat, and then deep fried.
