Enchiladas verdes (green enchiladas)

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
12 eaches Corn tortillas
4 tablespoons Oil or lard
1 each Clove garlic
1 tablespoon Flour
4 cups Green chili sauce
1 each Salt to taste
2 cups Grated cheddar or jack chees
¼ cup Minced onion

Directions

Fry tortillas in fat to soften. Heat garlic in oil then discard garlic. Blend flour into oil. Stir in green chili sauce and heat thoroughly. If mixture is too thick, add water. Add salt to taste.

Layer tortillas with sauce, minced onion and cheese on oven-proof plates. Sprinkle cheese on top. Use 3 tortillas for each serving.

Place in oven to allow cheese to melt. NOTE: For a real New Mexican touch place a poached or fried egg on top. The egg seems to help meld the flavors.
