Cheesy Beef Enchiladas

with tomato and scallion salsa

25 min
Difficulty: 1/3

The name of this popular Mexican dish derives from two Aztec words meaning 'chilli' and 'flute'—references to its rolled-up nature and the sauce it's often eaten with. These particular enchiladas are stuffed full of spiced beef and cheese and paired with a zingy salsa.

Preparation
1
Make the Salsa

  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Zest then halve the lemon. Cut half into thick wedges and juice the rest. 
  • Chop the tomatoes into small pieces.
  • Trim and grate the carrot (no need to peel). Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
  • In a bowl mix the tomato with half the scallion then season with salt, pepper and 1 tsp lemon juice (per 2P).

2
Fry the Mince

  • Heat a pan on medium-high heat (no oil). 
  • Once the pan is hot, add the mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins.
  • Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

3
Season and Simmer

  • Once mince is cooked, add the grated carrot, Central American style spice, worcester sauce and ketchup to the pan.
  • Add 50ml water (per 2P) and mix well. 
  • Cook for 1 min and remove from the heat.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4
Bake the Enchiladas

  • Lay the tortillas on a board, spoon some of the mince down the centre of each, then roll them up to enclose the filling.
  • Drizzle a little oil into the bottom of an ovenproof dish then lay in the wraps. 
  • Pack them snugly, side by side, with the folded edge underneath so they don't unroll.
  • Use a spoon to spread the half creme fraiche over the top. Sprinkle over the cheese.
  • Bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 8-10 mins.

5
Make the Topping

  • Meanwhile, mix the remaining creme fraiche with the lemon zest.
  • Season to taste salt and pepper then mix well to combine.

6
Plate it Up

  • Once cooked, remove the enchiladas from the oven. 
  • Divide between plates.
  • Top with a dollop of zesty creme fraiche.
  • Serve with tomato salsa, lemon wedges.
  • Garnish with remaining scallions.
