Enchilada

The enchilada is a dish that has been around for centuries, with its origins dating back to the Aztecs. The word enchilada comes from the Nahuatl word “enchilatl”, which means “to add chili”. The first enchiladas were simply tortillas dipped in chili sauce and then rolled up.

Over the years, the enchilada has evolved into the dish we know and love today. The tortillas are now filled with a variety of ingredients, including meats, cheeses, and vegetables, and then covered in a chili sauce or cheese.

There are now countless variations of the enchilada, with each region of Mexico having its own unique take on the dish. In the northern state of Sonora, for example, enchiladas are often served with a potato filling, while in the southern state of Oaxaca, they are typically filled with cheese and topped with a mole sauce.

Advice

When making enchiladas, it is important to plan ahead. Start by prepping your ingredients, including shredding the cheese, dicing the onion, and cooking the meat or beans. From there, you can assemble the enchiladas, layer the filling into the tortillas and topping with sauce and cheese. Be sure to use plenty of sauce, as it helps keep the enchiladas moist and flavorful. Lastly, bake your enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Enjoy!
