Homemade Enchilada Sauce

RE: Homemade Enchilada Sauce Post By Michael Rios (Guest Post) (07/21/2008) Hey Trix, "Fiesta themed party" translates to a party themed party. Maybe serve some cheese queso and carne meat with salsa sauce instead?

It sounds a little difficult, but it's super easy and you can add a little of your own flare, because the recipe is not very strict. So.. You will need: 8-10 roma tomatoes(the small ones) 3-4 gloves of garlic a little seasoning, a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons flour. In a blender blend, the tomatoes and garlic. Next bring that mixture to a simmer and stir in flour, slat and seasoning, I would suggest a little chili powder and if you like(I don't) a little oregano. Sometimes I also just buy a enchilada seasoning packet and put in a bout half. And I would also suggest using Queso Fresca for the enchiladas, a little different, but very authentic. Good Luck!

Then I add packaged taco seasoning to taste. I could never find a commercial brand that I remotely liked and got tired of trying :-)!

We recently had friends visit from Mexico and was told " Use Las Palmas and add a little brown sugar and Mexican oregano". I'm going to try it along with the homemade variety using dried chiles. My brother is an enchilada afeciando and I'm trying to make a sauce which is like his favorite restaurants.

Than, with the base feel free to add whatever spices you like and even onion & garlic would give it great flavor! You boil the dried chilis & then put in the blender with a little water and flour, until you reach desired thickness. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Enchilada Sauce Post By My name here. (Guest Post) (12/08/2005) A bit more time involved but easy and very much worth it...so much better than the canned stuff or powdered stuff...make lots and then freeze for later use. 12 oz whole dried new mex. chiles garlic to taste (4-8 cloves) Mexican oregano to taste (1-2 TBSP) Salt to taste Tear up the dried chiles, discard stems and seeds. Put in a pot and just cover w/ water; bring to boil then let simmer for 20-30 mins. Ladle out the chiles a couple ladles at a time into a blender (better than food processor), and add enough chile water to almost cover. Add garlic, oregano & salt, and blend until pureed. You'll have to do this 2, may be 3 times. Don't fill up the blender more than 2/3 full with each batch. Use or freeze in canning jars. (To un-freeze, just remove metal lids and heat in microwave for a minute, pop out the semi-frozen block, and continue to defrost in larger bowl.)

Cook/simmer for about 30-45 min's. Hint: put onion in with hamburger meat while browning, not in sauce.
