Over the course of the show, Raul will be teaching us to make enchiladas as we chat about Mexico, and Mexican food and culture. Cook along with us! The recipe that we shall be making is inspired by Raul’s busy bachelor lifestyle, so join in the easy way or with my from scratch on the fly substitutions.
We will share the recipe here in the coming week, but in the meantime, the ingredients that we will be cooking with are listed below, should you feel like following along with Raul’s cooking lesson live.
Ingredients
Enchiladas Sauce
- crushed tomatoes
- onion
- garlic
- chili powder
OR
- 2 cans of store bought enchilada sauce
Enchiladas
- 1 pack of corn tortillas
- 1 can of beans (Raul prefers refried but you can also use pinto beans)
- 1-2 cups of filling – meat (chicken or beef) and / or vegetables (Raul recommends mushrooms and corn for vegetarians)
- onion or onion powder
- garlic or garlic powder

Raul also recommends having a saucepan, and a Pyrex glass container on hand. And I recommend having a beverage handy as I suspect Raul and I will be enjoying one or two – so if you are too, then that will hopefully make our old friend banter and insider jokes funnier.
See you for some cooking Fireside, in a little while crocodile!
The recipe looks delicious. You have thought of vegetarain alternatives, and that is really good for vegetarians like me. Will definitely try it
