Directions
Felix’s Chile Con Queso, This recipe comes from an original created by Felix Mexican Restaurant in Houston, TX This is my take on this classic dish, and by far my favorite recipe for con queso NOTE: If you want to omit the oil, be sure to soften the onions in a couple of tablespoons of hot oil!, For those who crave the old Felix queso, you should know that El Patio restaurant bought out Felix entire menu, including the Queso You can still get your Felix fix! El Patio 6444 Westheimer Road Houston, TX 77057, I appreciate what david shaver said about putting only 1 tablespoon of paprika I made this yesterday and I don’t know what I did wrong It was lumpy and chunky, it was brown It looked like black bean dip I had put 3 T paprika! Anyone know why else it would be brown instead of cheese colored??? Don’t think it was burned And why so lumpy? I bought the pre-chopped onions, and they were not quite so finely chopped as the recipe says, but they were still small cubes I also used shredded mild cheddar with jack cheese because I couldn’t find either American grated or Velveeta original I also added a little cumin It tasted good, with something of a resemblance to the original I found this queso again at Larry’s Mexican Restaurant in Richmond recently! The owner said his grandfather was friends with Felix who shared the recipe with him I am going to try again Further advice welcomed!!!
