Chiles en Nogada is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of large Poblano chiles stuffed with a mixture of minced meat (usually pork or beef), fruits, and spices, topped with a creamy walnut sauce, known as nogada, and garnished with pomegranate seeds and parsley. This dish is often associated with Mexican Independence Day celebrations due to its use of the national colours: green (parsley), white (walnut sauce), and red (pomegranate seeds).
