Steps
- 1
SAUCE
Remove the stems, veins, and seeds from the guajillo chiles. For a more intense flavor, leave a few veins in. - 2
Once the chiles are cleaned, cook them with the tomatoes, onion, garlic, and 3 cups hot water over high heat for 15 minutes, stirring every 7 minutes.
-A sign they’re done: the water turns red, the tomatoes’ skins peel off, and all ingredients look pale. - 3
Let the pot cool for 10 minutes before blending for a milder flavor.
- 4
Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water to use at the end.
- 5
Blend all the ingredients until completely smooth.
- 6
Strain the blended sauce to remove the pulp. Discard the pulp after straining.
- 7
Add 1/2 to 1 cup of the reserved cooking water to the sauce.
- 8
RED ENCHILADAS
In a separate pot with hot water, cook the potatoes and carrots until soft and easy to cut. Once cooked, cut them into small cubes. - 9
In a skillet over medium heat, add about 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the potatoes and carrots and cook for 5 minutes.
- 10
Add 2 ladles of the sauce, mix well with 1 teaspoon salt and a pinch of salt. Stir and let the sauce absorb and evaporate.
- 11
Once the potatoes are ready, remove the skillet and prepare another skillet for the enchiladas. Pour some sauce into a plate deep enough to dip the tortillas.
- 12
In the new skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over high heat. Once hot, reduce to medium heat.
- 13
Dip each tortilla in the sauce (one at a time), then immediately place it in the skillet. Be careful with the hot oil.
- 14
Let the tortilla fry for about 10 seconds, then spoon a little more sauce over each tortilla in the skillet. Flip and cook for another 15 seconds. Remove the tortilla carefully so it doesn’t tear.
- 15
Place the tortilla on a plate, fill with the potato and carrot mixture, and roll it up. Repeat for each enchilada.
- 16
Once you have the desired amount, place them on a plate. Serve with rice if you like, or enjoy as is.
- 17
Top with chopped lettuce, onion, tomato, jalapeños, sour cream, cheese, and more sauce if desired.
