TEX-MEX BEEF ENCHILADAS | RECIPE (Page 4 ) | August 6, 2023

Annonce:

This is an easy beef enchilada gravy that begins like all other gravies: with oil and flour (also known as a roux — but don’t let that scare you, it’s super easy). After the roux is ready, beef broth is slowly added, and the mixture is then seasoned with dried spices like cumin and chili powder.

The gravy bubbles and thickens, and the end result is that savory and addictively delicious beefy enchilada sauce, perfect for smothering enchiladas, spreading onto rice and beans and scooping up with tortilla chips.

For an uber cheesy beef enchilada, the dish is finally topped with more of the cheese mixture and baked.

This is an excellent dish for entertaining as it can be made ahead up until the point of baking and refrigerated until ready to cook. Plus, this particular recipe feeds a crowd.

I’ve served these up on countless occasions, and the feedback is unanimous — these enchiladas are positively stellar and very likely, the best enchiladas you’ve ever had. Please, enjoy!
