Directions:
Drain chilies and remove seeds. Place on paper towel and pat dry. Cut cheese into 1/2" strips. Stuff each chili with 1 piece of cheese. Place chilies to the side.

To make coating: Separate egg yolks from whites. Beat the whites until they form soft peaks. Beat yolks separately; add water, flour, and salt until thick and creamy. Fold into whites.

Heat about 1-1/2" of oil in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Dip stuffed chilies into fluffy batter, place on saucer, and slide into the hot oil. When the bottoms are golden brown, gently turn using a spatula and fork. Cook other side (about 3-4 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.
