Recipe Summary
Prep Time: 40 minutes Cook Time: 2 hours 30 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 teaspoons minced fresh seeded jalapeno
2 teaspoons, minced garlic, plus 1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup black beans, soaked over night and drained
1/4-cup chopped cilantro, plus 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, plus 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
4 cups chicken stock
Cumin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup Southwestern Rub, recipe follows
1 pound flank steak
1 roasted poblano pepper, julienned
1 roasted ancho pepper, julienned
1 roasted jalapeno, minced
1 roasted yellow pepper, julienned
1 roasted red pepper, julienned
1/2 small red onion, julienned
1 lemon, juiced
1 lime, juiced
8 large corn tortillas, covered with a damp cloth
1 cup grated Pepper Monterey Jack
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons tequila
Corn and Cumin Custard, recipe follows
2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 tablespoons brunoise red peppers
2 tablespoons brunoise yellow peppers
In a sauce pot, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Saute the onions for 1 minute. Add the jalapenos, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, black beans, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Stir in the chicken stock. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook the beans for 2 hours or until the beans are tender. Remove from the heat and puree until smooth. Season with cumin, salt and pepper.
Preheat the grill.
Season the flank steak with 2 tablespoons olive oil and Southwestern Rub. Place on the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from the grill and allow to rest.
In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted peppers, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, red onion, lemon and lime juices, and 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro together. Mix thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat the fryer.
Using a French knife, julienne the flank steak. Place 2 ounces of the flank steak and 1-ounce of the grated cheese in the center of each tortilla. Tuck the sides in and roll the tortilla up tightly. (The flautas should resemble an over-sized pencil shape.) Fry 3 to 4 flautas at a time for 3 minutes or until the flautas are crispy. Remove from the fryer and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with Southwestern Rub.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, tequila, and remaining cilantro together. Mix thoroughly and season with salt and pepper.
On a serving plate, spoon the black bean puree in the center. Invert a corn and cumin custard in the center, and dab with the cilantro-tequila cream. Pile the flautas against the custard. Garnish with the chives, diced peppers, and Southwestern Rub.
Southwestern Rub:
2 teaspoons amber cumin
2 teaspoons white cumin
1 teaspoons black cumin
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
In a small mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients together. Mix thoroughly. This spice mixture should be stored in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
Yield: 1/2 cup
Corn and Cumin Custard
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups heavy cream
1 head garlic, split in half
1 cup fresh sweet corn, cut off the cob, reserving 2 cobs
1 tablespoon cumin
4 egg yolks
Salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the ramekins with butter. In a sauce pot, combine the cream, garlic head, and corn cobs. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes to infuse the garlic. Remove from the heat and strain. Add the corn to the cream mixture. In a mixing bowl, whisk the yolks and cumin together. Temper the cream into the yolks. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle the custard into 4-ounce ramekins. Place in a water-bath and bake for 1 hour or until the custards set. Remove from the oven and the water-bath. Allow the custards to rest for 5 minutes before inverting and serving.
I had no idea what flautas were, and now i'm printing this shit out. Hell yeah.

You have it easy though. You're there with your mom.
My mommy is 120 miles away.
If I were to get any flautas from her, I sure as hell wouldn't be sending em to you or anyone else.
I've got like 1 dollar in the back account.
