White Nachos

submitted by butterflydog
from NY, US

2 cups shredded Queso Asadero or Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup heavy cream
12 Tortillas cut into 8 wedges each
Vegetable oil to fill pan 2 inches deep
1 cup grated Queso Cochita or Parmesan cheese
1 to 2 jalapeno peppers minced
1 lg tomato chopped
1/2 red onion chopped

Great party appetizer, they won't last long.

Prepare sauce by combining cream and queso asadero cheese in saucepan
stirring over medium low heat and cook and stir constantly to melt
cheese. Heat oil in heavy duty pan till it bubbles and fry tortilla
wedges to lightly brown them, about 45 seconds. Fry in batches and don't
crowd, drain on paper toweling. Transfer weges to serving platter and
sprinkle batches with a little of the cochita cheese. Cover to keep warm.
When all are fried, top with melted cheese sauce, remaining grated
cheese, peppers and tomato and onion. Serve immediately! Yield: 12 or
more servings.

Note: I like to garnish with a bit of chopped fresh cilantro for added
color.
