About Rajas
Rajas is a flavorful Mexican dish made from roasted and sliced Poblano peppers, often sautéed with onions, cream, and cheese, creating a creamy and satisfying entree or side. Sometimes, corn or other vegetables are added for extra texture and flavor. Rajas, which translates to "strips" in Spanish, originates from traditional Mexican cuisine and is a staple in comfort food recipes like tacos, quesadillas, and casseroles. This dish offers a moderate calorie count and is rich in vitamins A and C, thanks to the Poblano peppers. However, the cream and cheese can make it high in fat and sodium, so portions should be enjoyed mindfully. For a lighter version, non-dairy options or reduced-fat ingredients can be used. Offering a smoky and hearty flavor, Rajas is a versatile choice that highlights the richness of Mexican culinary traditions.
