Rajas with Cream and Corn is a traditional Mexican dish that combines smoky, roasted poblano peppers ("rajas"), sweet corn kernels, and a lusciously creamy sauce. This hearty and flavorful comfort food is typically prepared with sautéed onions, garlic, and cream or sour cream, often accompanied by cheese for added richness. The dish is a staple in Mexican cuisine, showcasing a blend of earthy and creamy flavors that pair beautifully with tortillas or rice. From a nutritional perspective, poblano peppers provide essential vitamins like A and C, along with fiber and antioxidants. Sweet corn offers energy-boosting carbohydrates and some fiber. While the dish is rich in flavor, the cream and cheese can contribute significant calories, saturated fats, and dairy content, making portion control important for those monitoring fat intake. It's a balanced indulgence capturing the rustic, savory essence of Mexican home cooking.
