Start Your Sauce
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Place a pot over medium-high heat. 
  • Add ½ tbsp oil (per 2P) and ½ tbsp flour (per 2P) and stir together until no clumps remain.
  • Mix in the Central American spice, stock and 120ml water (per 2P).
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low.
  • Simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, 6-8 min. Remove from heat.
Prep the Veg
2

  • Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the onion and bell pepper, stirring often, until softened, 5-6 mins. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Fry the Filling
3
  • Add the pork mince to the now empty pan and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Once the pork has cooked, return the bell pepper and onion to the pan.
  • Stir in half the sauce, then remove from heat.

NOTE: Swapping to lamb mince? Follow the recipe as written, replacing 'pork' with ‘lamb’ where necessary.

Assemble the Enchiladas
4
  • Drizzle a little oil into the bottom of an oven dish. 
  • Lay the tortillas out on a board.
  • Top each one with some of pork mixture. 
  • Roll up to enclose and place snugly packed, seam-side down, in the oven dish.
Bake Until Bubbling
5
  • Drizzle your enchiladas with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with cheese
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until the cheese is melted and the edges of the tortillas are slightly crispy, 2-3 min.
Plate and Serve
6

  • Divide your cheesy enchiladas between plates.
  • Finish with a dollop of creme fraiche and a sprinkling of coriander.
