Ingredients

Garlic2 cloves, minced
Fresh Cilantrofor garnish
Olive Oil2 tbsp
Ground Beef500 g
Tomato Paste2 tbsp
Corn Tortillas10
Cheddar Cheese2 cups, shredded
Sour Creamfor serving
Ground Cumin1 tsp
Enchilada Sauce2 cups
Chili Powder1 tbsp

Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Brown beef with onion and garlic, then stir in chili powder, cumin and tomato paste. Cook 2 minutes.
2
Mix 1/2 cup enchilada sauce and 1 cup cheese into the beef. This binds the filling.
3
Warm the tortillas briefly so they roll without cracking.
4
Spoon filling down each tortilla, roll tightly and place seam-down in a greased baking dish.
5
Pour remaining sauce over the rolls so every tortilla is covered, then shower with remaining cheese.
6
Bake 20-25 minutes until bubbling and golden. Rest 5 minutes, then top with sour cream and cilantro.

Chef's tip

Sauce every corner of the tortillas — any dry patch will turn leathery and hard in the oven.
