AUTHENTIC MEXICAN ENCHILADAS
This is the real thing! Corn tortillas are dipped in a home made sauce, fried, filled with Mexican queso fresco, then topped with sour cream, lettuce and tomato. My mother in law is from Mexico and taught me to make this delicious dish! Serve with authentic refried beans, it has a taste different from the norm--so good!

Steps:
- Snap the tops off of the dried chilies, and place in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain the water, and place chilies into a food processor or blender with the garlic and salt. Puree until smooth. Press sauce through a strainer, and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Soak each tortilla in the sauce, then place in the hot oil. Turn over almost immediately, and fry for about 5 seconds on the other side. Remove to a plate that is lined with paper towels. The easiest way to do this is to fry the tortillas and stack them directly on top of each other until you have fried them all. This will keep the tortillas pliable until you are ready to fill them.
- Take one fried tortilla at a time, and fill with about 2 tablespoons of the queso fresco. Roll up, and place seam side down on a plate. Place three of these on each plate. Top in the following order: Start with a layer of sour cream, then a small handful of lettuce, three tomato slices, 2 more tablespoons of queso fresco, and finally, 1 tablespoon of green onions.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Put the tomatillos, onion, serrano, yellow chile and 3/4 cup water in a medium, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover and boil until the tomatillos turn olive-green color, about 10 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos, onion and chiles to a blender. Add the garlic and cilantro and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the tortillas until golden but still pliable, about 10 seconds per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Put the tortillas on a work surface. Divide the shredded chicken evenly among the tortillas and roll up each like a cigar. Spread 1/3 cup sauce in a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the enchiladas, seam-side down, in one layer snugly inside the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas.
- Drizzle with the Mexican crema and sprinkle the cheese all over. Bake until the cheese melts and starts to brown in spots, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
CALIFORNIA ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY
Here's what you need: sushi rice, seasoned rice vinegar, sushi grade nori, sesame seed, imitation crab, small cucumber, avocado

Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- Season the sushi rice with the rice vinegar, fanning and stirring until room temperature.
- On a rolling mat, place one sheet of nori with the rough side facing upwards.
- Wet your hands and grab a handful of rice and place it on the nori. Spread the rice evenly throughout the nori without mashing the rice down. Season rice with a pinch of sesame seeds, if using, then flip it over so the nori is facing upwards.
- Arrange, in a horizontal row 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the bottom, the crab followed by a row of avocado and a row of cucumber.
- Grabbing both nori and the mat, roll the mat over the filling so the extra space at the bottom touches the other side, squeezing down to make a nice tight roll. Squeeze down along the way to keep the roll from holding its shape.
- Transfer the roll onto a cutting board. Rub a knife on a damp paper towel before slicing the roll into six equal portions.
- Enjoy!

ENCHILADAS COLORADO
Steps:
- For the tortillas: Combine the masa, water, shortening and salt in a bowl. Bring the mixture together with your hands and make into a uniform disc. Wrap the disk in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Line the tortilla press with parchment paper.
- Portion the dough into golf-ball-size balls, about 1 1/2 ounces each. Place 1 ball at a time into the tortilla press between two sheets of parchment paper. Press down on the tortilla press. Carefully, peel away one sheet of the parchment. Flip the exposed side of the tortillas onto your hand and carefully remove the other side of the parchment. Place the tortilla directly onto the preheated skillet. Cook until the edges begin to curl and bumps form, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- For the enchiladas: Combine the chicken, chicken broth, salt, garlic and onions in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer until the chicken is fully cooked, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside to cool. When cool enough to handle, shred the chicken and set aside.
- For the Colorado sauce: Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the chiles skin-side up until fragrant and beginning to darken, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Transfer the chiles to a bowl and pour over the boiling water, or enough to cover the chilies; soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chiles and steeping liquid to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until a smooth paste forms.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the coriander, cumin, garlic and onions and cook until softened and fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the blended chile paste and bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly reduced and flavors are developed, 4 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
- For assembly: Pour 1/4 inch vegetable oil into a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Soften the tortillas one at a time in the hot oil, about 5 seconds. Set each tortilla on a paper towel afterwards to soak up some of the oil.
- To assemble the enchiladas, dip a softened tortilla in simmering Colorado sauce and place on a work surface. Add 2 tablespoons shredded chicken and 1 tablespoon Colorado sauce. Roll up tightly and place on a serving platter.
- Top the enchiladas with crumbled queso fresco, onions and cilantro. Drizzle with some crema, if using, and serve immediately.

CALIFORNIA STYLE ENCHILADAS
I was taught this by a Hispanic person in Los Angeles, I planned to keep it in the family, but I figured what the heck. The method I was taught was rather bland, so I built on to it over the years which includes replacing corn tortillas with flour. Now I live in the southeast, and friends come for miles when they hear this is on the dinner menu. If placed in the fridge, it is even better the next day after the flavors have time to blend together.
