Tips

  • Chili Powder is not same as in Indian spice box. Chili powder is blend of different things and varies as much as garam masala
  • Cayenne Pepper can be substituted with Indian pepper powder in spice box
  • I prefer 'Cacique Crema Agria Mexicana (Sour Cream)' not the "Table Cream" or regular sour cream
  • You can mix crema with little bit of water to make it thick pourable consistency
  • To add some test add garlic powder in crema mixture
  • Always buy block cheese and shred it at home
  • I prefer mix of Cheddar, Monterey Jack, and Asadero Cheese in equal parts
  • You can replace Yellow/Orange Bell Pepper with green pepper if you do not like lot of sweetness
