Instructions:

1. Prepare the Crema Fresca:

   • Combine cream and sour cream in a bowl.
   • Cover and let it stand at room temperature until thickened, for about 8 hours or overnight.
   • Chill until ready to use.

2. Prepare the Chili Peppers:

   • Char the poblano chiles over a gas flame until they are blackened on all sides.
   • Place the charred chiles in a plastic bag and let them stand for 10 minutes to steam.
   • Peel and core the chilies, then remove the seeds, rinse, and pat dry.

3. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

4. Prepare the Pie Pan:

   • Generously butter a 9-inch pie pan, preferably porcelain or stoneware, with 2-inch sides.

5. Arrange the Chilies:

   • Open up the chili peppers and arrange them around the sides of the pie pan with the skin side down, pointing toward the center of the pan, and extending about 1/2 inch above the rim.
   • Cover the bottom of the pan with the remaining chilies.

6. Prepare the Filling:

   • Finely grate the Chihuahua cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, onion, and garlic in a food processor using on/off pulses for about 30 seconds.
   • Add eggs and salt to the processor.
   • Process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides, for about 15 seconds.
   • Mix in the prepared Crema Fresca until well combined.

7. Assemble the Pie:

   • Pour the filling over the chilies in the pie pan.
   • Gently curl the edges of the chilies over the filling.

8. Bake the Pie:

   • Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, for about 45 to 50 minutes.
   • If necessary, cover the edges of the chilies with foil to prevent burning.

9. Cool and Serve:

   • Allow the pie to cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
   • Serve hot or at room temperature.
