Default Flat Enchiladas


Here are the enchiladas I made using the experimental enchilada
sauces.
I like making the flat enchiladas that I learned how to make while
living in New Mexico. I usually make them just using cheese but you
can add any leftover meat you like.

Easy peasy and perfect if you are cooking for one or two.

I make a three layer enchilada.
First moisten a corn tortilla in the enchilada sauce. Be careful, if
the tortilla is too moist it will fall apart. Use a spatula for this
step.

Carefully put tortilla on plate, I'm not always successful at having a
totally flat tortilla, but it still works.
http://i36.tinypic.com/wv1v5x.jpg

Have yourself an assembly line with diced onion, grated cheese or any
meat you are using, and shredded lettuce. Top each tortilla with the
onion and cheese and meat if you are using meat.
Repeat until you have as many layers as you like. I find three just
about right, bordering on too much.

Top with shredded lettuce. I like lightly sprinkling the lettuce with
some seasoned salt or garlic salt. Then top the lettuce with a sunny
side up egg.

koko,

You certainly went through a whole lot of trouble for enchiladas!

I don't have your "food" thumb. Like I SHOULD! Whatever color that is!
Red?

Best & thanks,

Andy

I make stacked enchiladas usually. They are so much easier to make.
Typically I'll make them 6 layers high. I like to give each tortilla a dip
in hot oil to firm them up just a little then into the sauce for a dip. The
oil does not stick to the tortilla this way and you do not get a greasy
result. They hold together well that way and it makes them tastier too.
Just a few seconds on either side so that they are firm, not crisp. I never
have the time to make a fresh sauce so I just use a big can of store bought,
add a can of tomato sauce then I add a generous amount of chili powder and
cumin. It makes for a coarse kind of flavor which is what I find typical of
the Mexican restaurants in this area.

Special orders don't upset us - lose the lettuce and you're in Santa Fe.

Is that commonly done in New Mexico? This thread is the first I've ever
heard of the practice.

To my untrained eye, it all seems a version of huevos rancheros. A
robust version to say the least.

Huh. And I though I was the only lazy person who made stacked
enchiladas. Why roll when you can stack? No salad or eggs on top
of them for me though.

It would seem to be a version of huevos rancheros, but huevos
rancheros are an entierly different sauce and presentation.

It is in southern NM for sure and they are much easier to make than
the rolled kind.

Yes, that is very common too. It adds a nice touch to the enchiladas.
The yolk needs to be on the runnier side, so it oozes into the sauce.
So very, very good!!

Now I am getting hungry for them!! Thankfully, I live in the midst of
some of the best New Mexican food around.

A favorite local dish, is King Ranch Chicken. It is also a flat
enchilada, only you add chicken. I make it after Thanksgiving to get
rid of the turkey.

Fried egg goes well on top of a lot of things.

recipe.

I really like that stuff, but haven't made it in years. I used to do
it "from scratch" no soup (can you believe it?). The biggest
difference between us though is that I tore up my tortillas for King
Ranch.

You're not thinking of something different. She's substituting
leftover turkey for chicken (don't forget the salsa).

It sounds like a good way to use leftover turkey. Sorta like the
tetrazzini I make after T'day.

It really is very, very good with the egg.

An egg on top of a flat enchilada is very traditional too.

I like Huevos Rancheros, so I'm sure I'd like it. I prefer my
enchiladas flat. My wife prefers them rolled. Since she usually makes
them, we generally have them rolled. When I make them flat, I make
individual portions on each plate and heat in the microwave. If
somebody wants a double, they get it. If they want a triple, they get
it. There's no serving necessary, they just get a whole plate.

There are plenty of recipes online and you are right, most of them call
for canned soups. You can make it yourself, using the ingredients you
like, without using canned soup. Home made is always better than
canned. I am sure yours would be awesome.

Becca, I have no problem with the canned soup, and I can see where you
got that impression from what I wrote. Not my intention.
I was just having a hard time picturing what I have known to be King
Ranch Chicken as a flat enchilada.

Thank you for thinking that I could make an awesome King Ranch
Chicken, but, I've tried, I can't.

Forgive me coming in so late but there are a number of recipes that
Google will find on a search for stacked tortillas. They, as others have
indicated, are New Mexican rather than Tex-Mex.

Why would it be in Santa Fe without lettuce?

In New Mexico enchiladas are quite often served stacked with a fried egg on
top.
