Blend the tomato, guajillo chili, morita chili, onion, garlic, cumin, fresh cilantro, the mix of dried herbs, and chicken broth.
Add the sauce to a pot with hot oil and cook for 5 minutes.
Beat the egg whites and yolks separately to make the batter.
Take a slice of ham, a slice of cheese, and place them between 2 whole nopales like a sandwich. Secure well with wooden toothpicks.
Coat the stuffed nopales in flour and then in the batter.
Cook the battered nopales in a skillet with hot oil over medium heat on both sides until they are nicely browned, but not burnt.
Remove from heat and remove excess oil with the help of a paper towel.
Serve the battered nopales with the sauce and garnish with fresh cilantro.
