THE BEST PORK ENCHILADAS
Enchiladas from the Mexican state of Oaxaca are made with a red chile sauce. Ours has raisins to pull the fruit flavors from the ancho chiles and add a touch of sweetness. The pork is braised with aromatics and seasonings that turns into a deeply flavored blended sauce. Frying the tortillas a bit before rolling them gives them a durability that is important when assembling the dish.

Steps:
- Rinse the red onion in cold water, breaking up the rings and removing any white membrane between the layers. Drain well. Toss the red onions, vinegar, 1 1/2 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt and the sugar in a medium bowl until the sugar and salt dissolve. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the pork, turning once, until golden brown on two sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the yellow onions to the same pot, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste, cumin and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until the paste is brick red and the mixture is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ancho and pasilla chiles, bay leaves, raisins, broth and 1 tablespoon salt. Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover and simmer until the pork is falling apart and easily shreds, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Remove the bay leaves and discard. Transfer the pork to a medium bowl. Reserve the cooking liquid.
- Let the hot cooking liquid cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Pour the sauce into a medium bowl and repeat with any remaining cooking liquid. Season with salt.
- Pour 1/2 cup of the chile sauce over the pork. Use a potato masher to smash the pork into the sauce; it should fall apart completely. Remove any remaining large pieces of fat and discard. Stir to combine and season with salt if necessary.
- Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
- Heat the remaining 1 cup oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it bubbles immediately when the edge of a tortilla touches the surface. Working one at a time, fry the tortillas until just starting to brown and crisp, about 10 seconds per side (they should still be somewhat pliable). Drain on paper towels.
- Dip both sides of each tortilla in the chile sauce just to coat and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Spread 1/2 cup of the chile sauce in a 6-inch strip down the center of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
- Spoon 1/4 cup shredded pork across the center of a tortilla. Fold one side over the filling, then roll up the tortilla. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with more sauce and remaining tortillas (the enchiladas should be nestled right up against each other in the pan). Top with any remaining sauce in your bowl or leftover on the baking sheet. Cover tightly with foil and bake until the sauce bubbles, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil, top with the cheese and bake until the cheese is melted but not brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes.
- Top the enchiladas with the pickled red onions. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

PULLED PORK ENCHILADAS
Enchiladas without cheese? Is that legal? I found this recipe on the back of an envelope which was placed inside a used cookbook that I purchased. I haven't tried it yet but I'm sure that it's safer here than in the previous location. I'm thinking that the braising liquid would also make an excellent starter for a spicy soup or stew of some sort. So this could be two recipes for the price of one.*Update* 3/28/2007 - I made this today and it was wonderful! I made some changes along the way that are reflected in the recipe and directions.

Steps:
- Place the pork in a deep, heavy stockpot or crockpot. (I used a crockpot).
- Add the chicken stock and enough water to completely cover it.
- Drop in the garlic and stir in the chili powders, black pepper and salt.
- Cover the pot and bring the mixture to a low simmer over medium heat.
- Let the pork braise in the liquid for at least 6 hours and up to 8 hours.
- Remove the pork from the braising liquid.
- Using your hands or 2 forks, pull the meat into strands and place in a bowl.
- Skim garlic cloves from pot and squish them up with the meat.
- *Note* I changed direction right here - instead of the enchilada sauce, I dipped out about 3 cups of braising liquid & put in a saucepan. I whisked in 3 tablespoons of cornstarch & let it cook till thick.
- Stir about 1 cup of enchilada sauce into the pork.
- Heat the oven to 400F°.
- Spoon a few tablespoons of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish. Spread the sauce so that it coats the bottom of the entire dish.
- Spoon some of the pork onto the middle of a tortilla, roll it up, tucking in the sides as you roll, and place seam side down in the baking dish.
- Continue to fill the remaining tortillas and place them in the baking dish.
- Pour more enchilada sauce on top of the tortillas so that they are covered.
- Cover and bake for 20 minutes or until heated through.
- To serve, place a rolled enchilada on a serving plate and spoon some more sauce over the top.
- Garnish with cilantro, chopped green onions, crumbled cheese & sour cream.

Tips:
- Selecting the Right Cut of Pork: Look for pork shoulder, pork butt, or Boston butt, which is well-marbled and has a good amount of connective tissue. This cut becomes tender and juicy when cooked slowly.
- Preparing the Pork: Before cooking, trim excess fat from the pork and season it generously with a flavorful rub. This will help develop a delicious crust and infuse the meat with flavor.
- Cooking the Pork to Perfection: Cook the pork shoulder in a slow cooker or Dutch oven on low heat for 8-10 hours or until it easily shreds with a fork. The low and slow cooking process allows the connective tissues to break down, resulting in tender and succulent pulled pork.
- Enhancing the Flavor: While the pork is cooking, prepare a flavorful enchilada sauce. This can be a simple tomato-based sauce or a more complex sauce made with roasted peppers, spices, and herbs.
- Assembling the Enchiladas: To assemble the enchiladas, spread a layer of enchilada sauce in a baking dish. Fill each tortilla with a generous amount of pulled pork, cheese, and any other desired fillings, such as beans, corn, or bell peppers. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam side down in the baking dish.
- Baking and Serving: Bake the enchiladas in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is hot and simmering. Garnish with additional cheese, sour cream, and cilantro before serving.
Conclusion:
Pulled pork enchiladas are a delightful and versatile dish that combines the flavors of tender pulled pork, a flavorful enchilada sauce, and melted cheese. With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can create a restaurant-quality meal that will impress your family and friends.
