I've been making a recipe for years taken from a book called "100 Mexican
Dishes" It's for something they call "Ranchero Bread".

Sift the cornmeal, salt and soda together into a large mixing bowl. Add
milk, eggs, oil, rice, corn, onion, chile and cheese and mix together
gently. Pour mixture into a 12 inch cake tin or ovenproof frying pan which
has been greased and sprinkled with cornmeal. Cook in a preheated moderate
oven (180 c / 350f / gas 4) for 40 to 45 minutes.

This "bread" always goes down well at parties or picnics and I tend to vary
the hotness according to who is going to eat it (whispers - I've even been
known to use green sweet peppers instead of the chiles but only for
decidedly non chile-head company). I mostly use the standard UK supermarket
chiles (variety unknown but cone shaped, 2 - 3 inches long, up to 1inch
wide at stalk end ,fairly thick fleshed, medium hotness)
