Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add Spices

    Stir in chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute to toast the spices.

  3. 3

    Add Enchilada Sauce

    Pour in the enchilada sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and let the sauce cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Assembling

  1. 4

    Fill the Tortillas

    Take a corn tortilla and place a spoonful of refried beans and a generous amount of shredded cheese in the center. Roll the tortilla tightly to form an enchilada. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  2. 5

    Arrange in Baking Dish

    Place the rolled enchiladas seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

Baking

  1. 6

    Add Sauce and Bake

    Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the enchiladas, making sure to cover them completely. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

Serving

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Top with sour cream, chopped cilantro, and diced tomatoes before serving.
