THE BEST PORK ENCHILADAS



The Best Pork Enchiladas image

Enchiladas from the Mexican state of Oaxaca are made with a red chile sauce. Ours has raisins to pull the fruit flavors from the ancho chiles and add a touch of sweetness. The pork is braised with aromatics and seasonings that turns into a deeply flavored blended sauce. Frying the tortillas a bit before rolling them gives them a durability that is important when assembling the dish.

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 red onion, sliced into thin rings
1 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar
Kosher salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons plus 1 cup vegetable oil
One 1-pound piece boneless pork shoulder
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 ounces ancho chiles (about 9 chiles), stemmed and seeded (see Cook's Note)
2 ounces pasilla chiles (about 8 chiles), stemmed and seeded (see Cook's Note)
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup raisins
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas
8 ounces quesillo or whole milk mozzarella, grated (see Cook's Note)
Lime wedges, for squeezing

Steps:

  • Rinse the red onion in cold water, breaking up the rings and removing any white membrane between the layers. Drain well. Toss the red onions, vinegar, 1 1/2 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt and the sugar in a medium bowl until the sugar and salt dissolve. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the pork, turning once, until golden brown on two sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the yellow onions to the same pot, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste, cumin and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until the paste is brick red and the mixture is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ancho and pasilla chiles, bay leaves, raisins, broth and 1 tablespoon salt. Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover and simmer until the pork is falling apart and easily shreds, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Remove the bay leaves and discard. Transfer the pork to a medium bowl. Reserve the cooking liquid.
  • Let the hot cooking liquid cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Pour the sauce into a medium bowl and repeat with any remaining cooking liquid. Season with salt.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of the chile sauce over the pork. Use a potato masher to smash the pork into the sauce; it should fall apart completely. Remove any remaining large pieces of fat and discard. Stir to combine and season with salt if necessary.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat the remaining 1 cup oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it bubbles immediately when the edge of a tortilla touches the surface. Working one at a time, fry the tortillas until just starting to brown and crisp, about 10 seconds per side (they should still be somewhat pliable). Drain on paper towels.
  • Dip both sides of each tortilla in the chile sauce just to coat and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Spread 1/2 cup of the chile sauce in a 6-inch strip down the center of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup shredded pork across the center of a tortilla. Fold one side over the filling, then roll up the tortilla. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with more sauce and remaining tortillas (the enchiladas should be nestled right up against each other in the pan). Top with any remaining sauce in your bowl or leftover on the baking sheet. Cover tightly with foil and bake until the sauce bubbles, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil, top with the cheese and bake until the cheese is melted but not brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes.
  • Top the enchiladas with the pickled red onions. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

PULLED PORK ENCHILADAS

Using leftover Pork Carnitas (Mexican Pulled Pork) or other shredded meat, it takes a mere 15 minutes to assemble this dish to pop into the oven, making this a sensational mid week meal! Note that the Pork Carnitas used in this recipe is already seasoned and flavoured so if you substitute with an unseasoned meat then please refer to the notes for seasonings to add to the filling mixture.

Categories     Baked     Fast

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups (packed) Pork Carnitas (Mexican Pulled Pork) or other shredded meat (see notes)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup tinned black beans or red kidney beans (, drained)
1 can (15oz / 400g) corn kernels (, drained)
2 cups shredded cheese ((any good melting cheese))
8 tortillas
3 cups (750ml / 25oz) Enchilada Sauce ((homemade or store bought))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over high heat. Add the pork carnitas and cook until the bottom is nicely browned - about 1 1/2 minutes. Do not turn, just make the bottom crispy (to keep the pulled pork as moist as possible), then remove the pulled pork into a bowl. It does not matter if the top isn't heated through, it will heat in the oven.
  • Add the corn, black beans, 1/2 cup enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup cheese into the bowl and mix to combine.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of Enchilada Sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Place 1/2 packed cup of filling (from step 3) into a tortilla and roll up and place in the baking dish.
  • Pour over the remaining Enchilada Sauce, and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and scatter the cheese on, then bake for a further 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
  • Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
