Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the vegetable oil.
Aproximativ 3 min.

Drain the green chiles and pat them dry with paper towels. If they are whole, slice them open so they can lie flat.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Removing excess moisture from the chiles prevents the casserole from becoming watery.

Arrange the chiles designated for the bottom layer evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish.

Sprinkle the shredded cheese for the bottom layer evenly over the chiles.
Aproximativ 1 min.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Aproximativ 2 min.

Add the sour cream, milk, all-purpose flour, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Whisk until the batter is smooth and no lumps of flour remain.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Whisking the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients helps prevent clumps.

Nota bucătarului: To check for doneness, insert a knife into the center; it should come out clean.

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Resting allows the casserole to firm up, making it much easier to cut into clean slices.
