Method

Enchilada Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, chopped walnuts, chopped parsley, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a blender, combine chopped walnuts, milk, cinnamon, sugar, and salt. Blend until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add more milk to reach desired consistency.

Enchiladas

  1. 5

    Prepare Tortillas

    In a separate skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Quickly fry each corn tortilla for about 10-15 seconds on each side to soften them.

  2. 6

    Assemble Enchiladas

    Place a generous spoonful of the meat filling in the center of each tortilla, roll them up, and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.

  3. 7

    Add Sauce

    Pour the prepared walnut sauce over the rolled enchiladas, ensuring they are well coated.

  4. 8

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the enchiladas for 15-20 minutes until heated through.

  5. 9

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Garnish with additional chopped walnuts and parsley if desired.
