These red enchiladas are just like the ones my mom used to make for us when we were kids, bringing back those memories. I have other versions baked in the oven published as well.

Cooking Instructions

45 minutes
  1. 1

    Add all the sauce ingredients—guajillo chiles, ancho chile, onion, garlic, bouillon cube, tomato, oregano, salt, flour, and boiling water—to a blender. Let the chiles soak until softened, then blend well so you don't need to strain the sauce.

  2. 2

    Pour the sauce into a skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, heat a little oil in another skillet. Lightly fry the tortillas on both sides just until softened, not crispy. Once all are done, dip each tortilla in the sauce, then place on a plate and add cheese and onion as desired.

  4. 4

    You can also put cheese in the center, roll up the tortillas, and arrange them on the plate. Top with more cheese and onion. Ready to enjoy!
