Time 1h15m

Yield 12 Enchiladas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup onion, minced
6 cups eggplants, diced
1 teaspoon salt (possibly more, to taste)
black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 medium bell pepper, minced (any color)
1 cup almonds, chopped, lightly toasted
1 cup grated monterey jack cheese, packed
12 corn tortillas
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup onion, minced
1 poblano chile, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt (possibly more, to taste)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
3 tablespoons garlic, minced
3 cups tomatoes, chopped (canned OK)
1 cup water or 1 cup tomato juice
black pepper and cayenne (optional)

Steps:

  • Sauce:.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan. Add the onion, chili, and salt, and sauté over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until the onion becomes transparent. Add cumin, chili powder and half the garlic, and sauté for about 3 minutes longer.
  • Add the tomatoes and water or juice. Bring to a boil, partially cover, and turn the heat down as low as possible. Simmer for 30 minutes, adding the remaining garlic, and optional black pepper and cayenne to taste during the last 5 minutes or so.
  • NOTE: You can leave the sauce in chunky form, or smooth it out by puréeing it in a blender. (I like to use a hand-held immersion blender for this. Be careful not to splash!).
  • Enchiladas:.
  • Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven. Add onion, and sauté for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
  • Add eggplant, salt, and pepper, and mix well. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is soft.
  • Add garlic and bell pepper. Stir and cook 5 minutes longer, or until the pepper is tender. Taste to correct salt.
  • Remove from heat; stir in almonds and cheese.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Moisten each tortilla briefly in water then place approximately 1/4 cup filling on one side and roll up. Gently place the filled enchiladas in a baking pan, and pour a full recipe of Mexican Red Sauce over the top. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until heated through. Serve hot, with beans, rice, and green salad.
