Enchiladas de birria

Ingredientes

• 8 corn tortillas
• vegetable oil (as needed)
• 2 cups birria meat (shredded)
• 2 cups enchilada sauce
• 2 cups melty cheese (Monterey Jack, Mozzarella, or Cheddar)

Preparación

1. 1

   Heat ½ inch of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add one tortilla and lightly fry it for about 5-7 seconds on each side.

2. 2

   Place the tortilla on a plate lined with kitchen paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with all tortillas and set aside.

3. 3

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°).

4. 4

   Add ⅓ of the enchilada sauce to the bottom of a baking dish and spread with a spoon.

5. 5

   Place one tortilla on a plate and spread a bit of enchilada sauce, then add some shredded birria meat followed by some cheese.

6. 6

   Roll up the tortilla with the fillings and place it in the baking dish, seam-side down. Repeat with all tortillas until you fill the dish (read notes).

7. 7

   Spoon the remaining sauce over the rolled tortillas and then top with the remaining cheese.

8. 8

   Tent the enchiladas with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and lightly golden on top.

9. 9

   Garnish with diced onion, chopped cilantro, and some sliced radishes. Serve immediately.
