(Enchiladas de Frijol Negro)
Category: Enchiladas and Crepes
Makes 8 enchiladas
These black bean enchiladas are coated and baked in red chile sauce. Cook the beans a day ahead, or in a pinch, canned black beans may be used. Prepare a double batch of the chile sauce and freeze any that's leftover.
5 cups Basic Red Chile Sauce (double recipe)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
8 (6- to 7-inch) corn tortillas
2 cups Basic Refried Beans with black beans
1 cup shredded Oaxaca or Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
4 green onions, chopped including 2 inches of green part
1. Prepare chile sauce. Set aside and keep the sauce warm on low heat. Preheat the oven to 350°.
2. Prepare the sauce. Then, grease a 9- × 13-inch baking pan. In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. With tongs, dip the tortillas, 1 at a time, in the hot oil until limp, about 3 seconds. Drain on paper towels. Stack the tortillas on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft and warm.
3. To assemble the enchiladas, spoon about 1/4 cup of the sauce on a plate. Lay 1 tortilla on the plate and turn once to coat with sauce. Place the tortilla on another plate and put about 1/4 cup of beans on the tortilla. Roll into a cylinder and place seam side down in the baking pan. Repeat, until all tortillas are filled, rolled, and placed side by side in the pan. Pour about 1 cup of the remaining sauce over the enchiladas to cover completely. Sprinkle with the cheese. Bake until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. Drizzle with crema or sour cream and scatter green onions on top. Serve at once.
