  • In a deep container, mix the ground beef with cinnamon, thyme, pepper, and garlic.
  • Heat oil in a skillet and cook the meat until slightly cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Now sauté the onion in the skillet for 2 minutes and add the tomato, cook for 5 more minutes.
  • Return the meat to the skillet and mix, continue cooking. Add the plantain, mix, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Add the raisins and almonds, cook for 5 more minutes and remove from heat.
  • Char the poblano peppers on a griddle or directly over the flame until completely blackened. Place in a bag and let them sweat for 5 minutes. Remove the peppers from the bag, peel them, and wash them.
  • Make a slit in the middle of each pepper to stuff them and remove the veins and seeds. Place them in a deep container with water, salt, and vinegar and let them soak for 15 minutes.
  • Stuff each pepper with the picadillo filling.
  • Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, add the yolks and continue beating.
  • Prepare a skillet with oil for frying, a plate with the beaten eggs, and another plate with flour.
