Enchilada

What the real thing tastes like

An enchilada (, Spanish: [entʃiˈlaða]) is a Mexican dish consisting of a corn tortilla rolled around a filling and covered with a savory sauce. Enchiladas can be filled with various ingredients, including meats, cheese, beans, potatoes, vegetables, or combinations. Enchilada sauces include chili-based sauces, such as salsa roja, various moles, tomato-based sauces, such as salsa verde, or cheese-based sauces, such as chile con queso.

An enchilada is a Mexican foundation built on simplicity: a corn tortilla cradling whatever filling speaks to the cook—meat, cheese, beans, potatoes, vegetables, or their conversation together—then blanketed in sauce. That sauce is where the character emerges: chili-based salsa roja, layered moles, bright salsa verde, or the velvet pull of chile con queso. The formula is forgiving, the results never are.
