Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings (2 enchiladas each)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Large pinch cayenne pepper
One 15-ounce can tomato puree
Kosher salt
One 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
One 15-ounce can pinto beans, strained and rinsed
4 ounces shredded Cheddar (about 1 1/2 cups)
4 ounces shredded pepper Jack cheese (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup sour cream
3 scallions, sliced
Kosher salt
Twelve 6-inch corn or flour tortillas
Juice of 1/2 a lime

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the sauce: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, chile powder, cumin and cayenne, and continue to cook, stirring, until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups water, the tomato puree and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and bring to a simmer. Continue cooking until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (it should be looser and thinner than marinara sauce), 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • For the filling: Squeeze all the excess moisture out of the spinach. Put it into a large bowl with the pinto beans, and squeeze with your hands to combine and smash up the beans a little. Add half of both the Cheddar and the pepper Jack, half of both the sour cream and the scallions and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and stir to combine.
  • Spread about 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Lay the tortillas out on a work surface, and spread 1 side of each with about 1 teaspoon of tomato sauce. Put about 1/4 cup of the filling across the middle of each tortilla. Roll each up, then shingle them in 2 even rows in the baking dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top of the rolled tortillas, and sprinkle with the remaining cheeses. Cover the baking dish loosely with foil, and bake until the cheeses are melted and the filling is hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover, and continue baking to heat completely through, about 10 minutes more.
  • For the topping: Whisk together the remaining sour cream, the lime juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Drizzle the mixture over the baked enchiladas, and sprinkle with the remaining scallions.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup yellow onions-julienned
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 roasted poblano peppers, peeled, seeded, and sliced into 1/8-inch pieces
1 cup button mushrooms, quartered
3/4 cups zucchini, diced to 1/4-inch
1 tablespoon roasted garlic
1/2 cup Yukon gold potatoes, diced 1/4-inch
2 red bell peppers
2 yellow bell peppers, peeled, seeded, and sliced like rajas
1 tablespoon toasted oregano leaves
2 teaspoons epazote, chopped fine
2 teaspoons hoja santa, chopped fine
Salt and black pepper
Olive oil
1 cup spinach
2 flour tortillas
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
Green and red chile sauces

Steps:

  • Vegetable mix: In a large pan over high heat, saute the onions in the olive oil until translucent, then add the poblano and the mushrooms, saute on high until the mushrooms are soft and edible. Add the zucchini and saute until the zucchini are no longer crunchy when you taste them. Add the rest of the ingredients then season and set aside to cool.
  • Enchilada Assembly: Put a small amount of olive oil in a pan and saute the spinach on high for one minute or until wilted, then set aside. Warm the tortillas to make them flexible. Fill the tortillas with vegetable mixture and roll them up. Cut the enchiladas in half and set on an oven- proof plate. Cover the enchiladas with both chile sauces and a liberal amount of cheese. Place the plate in the oven or the salamander until the cheese melts.
