ENCHILADAS ROJAS RECIPE
Enchiladas Rojas is one of those dishes that are cooked differently in every home. Each cook has his/her own recipe, so this is my own version based on my mom's way of cooking them. In my hometown, it is common to have enchiladas for breakfast or brunch.

Steps:
- Let's start first with the enchilada sauce. Slightly roast the peppers in a hot griddle, pressing them flat with the help of a spatula. Make sure NOT to burn them. This step takes a few seconds on each side of the peppers.
- Once roasted, place them in a saucepan with water and turn the heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes or when they look soft.
- Remove saucepan from stove and let them cool for another 10-15 minutes. The pepper skins should look soft.
- After the resting period, drain the peppers and place in the blender along with the garlic cloves. Add 1/2 cup of clean water and blend until you have a smooth sauce. If necessary, strain the sauce into a large bowl using a fine strainer. Season with the oregano, salt, and pepper, and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, just to keep the red enchiladas warm while you finish assembling them. Add the 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add oil little by little as needed. To much oil will get a soggy tortilla.
- Dip the tortilla into the enchilada sauce to lightly coat each side.
- Place it in the Frying Comal-pan or skillet and briefly fry a few seconds on both sides. Add more vegetable oil to the skillet as needed. Place fried tortillas in a dish while you make the rest of the tortillas to keep warm in the oven.
- To assemble the red enchiladas, first, place the filling in the center of the tortilla and fold it. Sometimes I place a meat filling into the center of the tortilla and then roll it, like in the pictures above.
- Sprinkle the enchiladas with the cheese and onion. Add the garnish of your choice and enjoy!
- If you decide to add the potatoes and carrots as a garnish: Peel potatoes and carrots, cut into cubes and boil until almost tender but still firm. Then drain and cool.
- Use the same frying pan where you fried the red enchiladas to lightly fry the potatoes, adding a little more oil. The potatoes and carrots will be coated with some of the sauce sticking to the frying pan. Season with salt and garnish with cheese.

ENCHILADAS ROJAS
The finish on these enchiladas is more authentic than their melted-cheese-topped brethren -- crumbled queso fresco, diced white onion, and pickled jalapeno slices finish off this earthy, fragrantly spiced dish.

Steps:
- Toast chiles in a dry medium skillet over medium-high until fragrant and blistered, 1 to 2 minutes a side. Wipe skillet clean. Remove and discard chile stems and seeds; transfer chiles to a bowl. Cover with 3 cups hot water and let soak 15 minutes. Remove chiles, reserving liquid.
- Blend chiles, cinnamon, clove, oregano, thyme, peppercorns, sesame seeds, peanuts, onion, and 1 1/2 cups reserved liquid until smooth. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in skillet over medium-high. Add sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 5 minutes. Add 1 cup reserved liquid; bring to a boil. Season with salt; keep warm.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in another skillet over medium. Gently fry tortillas one at a time, using 1 tablespoon oil for every 3 tortillas, until pliable, about 30 seconds a side. Remove each with tongs, letting oil drip back into skillet, and dip into sauce, turning to fully coat. Transfer to a plate.
- Place a heaping 1/4 cup carnitas in center of a tortilla. Roll tightly and place, seam-side down, in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, arranging them in dish in 2 rows. Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas. Top with queso fresco, onion, jalapeno, and cilantro; serve.
ENCHILADAS ROJAS MEXICANA (CHICKEN)
This is my sister-in-law's recipe for wonderful chicken enchiladas with red sauce. We use Recipe #197786 for the enchilada sauce. I believe the salsa really makes the dish. It takes some time, but is well worth it. If you're in a hurry, you can start with left over chicken, or rotisserie chicken.

Steps:
- Boil the whole chicken with 1/2 onion, garlic cloves and salt in water to cover for one hour over medium heat. Let cool enough to handle. Remove chicken meat from bone and shred. (Can use left over chicken meat, or a rotisserie chicken if desired.).
- Chop the white onion and set aside. Chop the cilantro and set aside.
- Heat a little olive oil in a skillet, and quickly fry the tortillas, one at a time, until soft and pliable. You will need to add a little olive oil from time to time. Drain the tortillas on paper towels.
- Heat the salsa. One at a time, dip the soft tortilla in the salsa and place it in the baking pan (a 13x9 baking pan works well). Place a heaping spoonful each of shredded chicken and cheese in the middle of the tortilla. Add a little chopped onion and cilantro. Fold or roll the tortilla and move it to the side of the pan. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until the pan is full. Top with the remaining salsa, sprinkle with remaining cheese, cilantro and onion.
- Bake at 350ºF until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbly.

Steps:
- Remove all seeds and stem from the peppers then rinse under cold water to remove any dust.
- In a medium pot, add the chiles, onions and garlic clove. Add enough water to cover the chiles.
- Cover and cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes or until very soft and pliable. Rest chiles in the water for another 10 to 15 minutes to cool off and finish hydrating the chiles.
- Transfer chiles to a blender or food processor and add 2 cups broth. Puree for about 1 minute. Note: you can do this in two different batches if the blender isn't big enough for all the ingredients at once.
- Strain the pureed chiles to remove the remaining seeds and skins (tip: push the chile mix with a spoon to get the most out of them).
- In a large saucepan, heat the 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the pureed chiles and tomato sauce. Cook, stirring often for about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper according to taste.
- Add about ¼ cup of oil to a small or medium skillet. Heat on medium-high heat. When the oil is very hot (but not smoky), add one tortilla at the time and cook each side for about 4 to 5 seconds or until tortilla is lightly fried (See notes section)
- As you fry each tortilla, drain any excess oil by tapping it into the pan then place on a plate with a paper towel. Repeat with remaining tortillas and add more oil if necessary.
- To assemble the enchiladas rojas, dip each tortilla into the warm sauce and place on the serving plates.
- Fill with your favorite filling. In this case we're using crumbled queso fresco but you can use shredded chicken, beef, beans or your favorite cooked vegetables.
- Either fold the tortilla like a taco or roll them as pictured below. I like to add a little more sauce on top for extra flavor.
- Sprinkle with queso fresco and other toppings you choose. I like to squeeze some lime juice to balance all of the flavors.
- Buen provecho!

SALSA ROJA
Most of the flavor in my homemade salsa roja recipe comes from dried mild chiles, like ancho, guajillo, and pasilla. Use this mild salsa on tacos or chips.

Steps:
- Combine 1 large white onion, halved, 4 medium plum tomatoes (about 12 oz.), halved, 1-2 serrano chiles, 4 garlic cloves, and 3 oz. dried ancho, guajillo, and/or pasilla chiles, stems and seeds removed, in a medium saucepan, using fresh vegetables to weigh down dried chiles. Pour in water just to cover. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Cover and let sit until dried chiles are rehydrated and fresh vegetables are softened, 20-25 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender; reserve soaking liquid. Add ½ bunch cilantro, tough stems trimmed, coarsely chopped, juice of 1 lime, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, ½ tsp. ground cumin, ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon, and 1 cup reserved soaking liquid. Blend, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Taste salsa and add more salt if needed.
ENCHILADAS WITH SALSA ROJA
I've tried many enchilada recipes, and cobbled them together to create the one that works best for me. It's a little time consuming to dip the tortillas in hot oil then in the sauce before filling and rolling the enchiladas, but the taste is so good that it's worth the extra effort. this sauce is also good by itself with chips (I munch on any leftover sauce with chips while waiting for the enchiladas to bake!) You can also add 1 small can of tomato sauce to the sauce if you like tomato-y enchilada sauce. El Yucateco extra hot chile habanero sauce is my favorite sauce to add heat, and you can add 1 tablespoon of this sauce to the enchilada sauce and omit the small hot red peppers if you wish. A packet of fajita seasoning adds a lot of flavor to the beef mixture and can replace the other spices if you're in a hurry.

Steps:
- Puree first 4 ingredients in food processor. Add to saucepan, straining first to remove any large chunks. Stir in remaining sauce ingredients and saute for several minutes on low until mixture starts to bubble. Remove from heat.
- Saute beef and diced onion in olive oil until cooked to desired doneness. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of the cheese.
- Heat oil and, using tongs, dip corn tortillas one at a time in oil, then in sauce. Fill with 2 tablespoons of beef mixture and roll, placing side by side in greased baking dish (be careful, as tortillas will be hot). Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Top with remaining cheese and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Let pan rest for 5 minutes before serving.
