Provided by Chelsie Kenyon

Categories     Dinner     Entree

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3/4 cup oil
14 corn tortillas
2 1/2 cups homemade enchilada sauce (or one 28-ounce can or jarred store-bought sauce)
2 1/2 cups shredded cheese (or other fillings like cooked and seasoned ground beef or cooked and shredded chicken)

Steps:

  • Warm the oil over very low heat in a heat-proof shallow dish or skillet. You want it very warm but not burning hot.
  • Keep another heat-proof dish or skillet over low heat to keep the tortillas warm.
  • Dip each tortilla in the warm oil for 5 to 8 seconds until the tortilla is warmed through and pliable.
  • Put the homemade or purchased enchilada sauce in a shallow dish or bowl so that you can easily dip the tortillas in it.
  • Do the same with all the tortillas.
  • Fold one side over, then the other side.
  • Turn the enchilada over, seam side down, so the tortilla stays closed, and place it in the baking dish.
  • Repeat with each tortilla until you have filled the dish. Depending on the amount of filling of used and the size of the tortillas, you will use between 10 and 14 tortillas.
  • Serve and enjoy!

AUTHENTIC ENCHILADA SAUCE



Authentic Enchilada Sauce image

Great sauce and very authentic enchiladas. If you want a hotter sauce, just add some cayenne pepper when it's done. Ancho and pasilla chile peppers are dried chiles, and may be available at your grocery store, or a Mexican market.

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 ancho chile peppers
3 pasilla chile peppers
Water to cover
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 onion, chopped
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups chicken stock
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon ground cumin
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place chile peppers on a cookie sheet and roast in the oven until slightly toasted. (Note: When you can smell them, they're done.)
  • Remove from the oven and slit them open. Remove the seeds and veins, then put them in a bowl with boiling water to cover. Allow them to sit for 30 minutes, then remove them from the water, reserving the water. Scrape the pulp from the insides of the chile peppers and discard the skins. (Note: The skins will give the mixture a bitter flavor.) Return the pulp to the water and set aside for later.
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, saute the garlic and onion in the butter or margarine for 5 minutes, or until onion is tender. Add the flour and mix well. Add the stock, stirring until thickened, and then add the reserved chile pulp mixture. Finally, add the oregano and the cumin.
  • In a blender or food processor, puree the mixture until smooth. Season with salt to taste.

OLD FASHIONED ENCHILADA RECIPE

Provided by homewithholly

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pounds Ground Beef
4 tbsp Ground Chili Powder or Mild Bueno Red Chili
4 tbsp Ground cumin
2 tbsp Garlic Seasoning Salt
1 tsp Oregano
2-3 tsp Salt
1 tsp Pepper
1 cup Vegetable Oil
1 cup Flour
3½ cups Water ((You can add a little more water if it gets to thick))
1 pkg Flour Tortillas
1 pkg Corn Tortillas
1 cup Vegetable Oil ((For frying the tortillas))
1 head Iceberg or Romaine Lettuce
1 pkg Shredded Mexican Cheese
1 small Onion (chopped)
1 large Tomato
1 container Sour Cream or Mexican Crema

Steps:

  • Take a large pan and heat up to medium high and add the ground beef. Brown the ground beef and use a potato masher to help chop up the ground beef into small pieces. Add the salt, pepper, and garlic seasoning .
  • When the ground beef is browned, add the chili powder (or mild bueno red chili), cumin, and oregano. Brown for a minute or two longer and stir into the beef.
  • Add one cup of vegetable oil and the flour. Stir in well and brown for a few more minutes until the flour has had a chance to cook a bit. Then add in the water and stir on medium to medium high heat until it thickens up. You may need to add in a little more water if it becomes too thick.
  • Give it a taste at this point and if it needs a little more salt, you can add more to taste. I also tend to add a little more cumin and chili powder too if it isn't as seasoned as I like so feel free to experiment with the flavor to make it a bit richer.
  • Turn the heat down to low and let it simmer a bit while you fry up the tortillas.
  • Add one cup of oil to a separate frying pan and heat up the oil to medium high. Fry the tortillas up and set each one on a paper towel and layer them to remove excess oil. We do both corn and and flour and some like them crispy and some like them soft. I prefer soft corn so I dip them in the hot oil and fry each side for 10-15 seconds and then drain. My husband prefers the flour tortillas and he likes his crispy so try experimenting to see what you prefer. Either way, they are so good!
  • You will also want to chop up the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions, grate the cheese or use pre-shredded cheese and set those out in bowls so everyone can make their own enchilada. We also put out salsa and sour cream.
  • Start with the tortilla of choice on the bottom then add the enchilada meat sauce, cheese, onions, lettuce, tomatoes and top with sour cream. (You can leave off anyone of these items if you don't like them too! It's all up to you! It's made almost like a tostada!
  • This is a super easy and fast recipe that feeds a large crowd and one that we have often with my husbands family.
