Low
Place a slice of chayote, on top a slice of cheese, and finish with another slice of chayote, then secure them with toothpicks and coat with flour so that they can be battered later. Repeat until all chayote is used.
Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, and once you achieve this consistency, incorporate the yolks and cornstarch until well combined. Set aside.
Pass the breaded chayote patties through the batter and carefully fry in a hot pan with enough oil over medium heat. Using tongs, turn the patties on all sides until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
For the sauce: blend Del Fuerte® Origen® Ground Tomatoes with garlic, onion, and pepper. Heat the oil over medium heat in a saucepan and cook the sauce for 5 minutes, then season with salt and pepper and reduce the temperature to low, then add the bay leaves and cook until it boils. Set aside.
Serve the chayote patties filled with cheese on a flat plate, drizzle with sauce, and garnish with parsley.
