Poblano Corn Pudding

Submitted by Miss Annie

"This is called a pudding, but it is baked in a bundt pan and sliced into wedges for serving. A bit labor intensive, but worth every minute. This recipe is from Pasqual's Restaurant in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Prep time does not include roasting the chile."
