Enchiladas a la Mama
There are so many different recipes for enchiladas that's it's hard to
tell what constitutes a "genuine" enchilada. I grew up in Texas
(Tejas, or TAY-hoss for non-Mexican food fans, you poor, pathetic
souls), and this is how my mama made 'em. Simple and delicious.
corn tortillas
onions, diced
shredded cheddar cheese
Ortega's© Enchilada sauce
chili - canned or your own
HOT SAUCE (YES!) (Equal time: My wife can't handle hot sauce, but
she's working on it.)
For each "enchilada," stick a moistened corn tortilla in the
microwave
(or moisten two paper towels and stick the tortilla between 'em before
popping in the microwave), then nuke it for 30 seconds or so.
Basically, you just want to soften it up, so that when you roll it up
it doesn't just pop right back open. (Masochists: skip this step.)
INSIDE the tortilla, lying flat on an oven-proof plate, make a
straight line right down the middle, perhaps an inch or so wide using
as much or as little diced onions as you like, then cover that with
shredded cheddar cheese, again, as much or as little as you like.
Bear in mind: one tortilla won't hold 2 cups of diced onions NOR 2
cups of shredded cheddar, so try not to use more than about a couple
of tablespoons of either. Hey, if you fold it up and it's too skinny,
add more. If you fold it up, but it's so fat you can't turn it over
(the next step), take some out. If you're bright enough to use email,
you can handle this. I have faith in my fellow chitterlings.com-type
persons. (If nothing else works, place your hand on the screen: "HEAL!
HEAL!")
Okay, you've got your filling as you like it (whoa! Shakespeare?)
(yeth, Shakespeare): Now, pull one side of the tortilla over the
filling, then the other, then flip that bad boy over. IF IT REFUSES TO
STAY PUT: stick a tad of the cheddar on a saucer and nuke it for a few
seconds 'til it melts. While still hot, use it as "glue" to
hold your
tortilla together...THEN flip that bad boy over.
Put some Ortega's© Enchilada sauce on the top, as much or as little,
etc.
Cover with chili, perhaps a half cup or a whole cup. You CAN'T put too
much chili on this, especially if you have rice as a side. Of course,
if you're trying to get several things on the same plate, you may want
to limit the amount of chili to what won't come spilling over the side
of the plate...OR use a separate plate for everything else so you can
go crazy with the chili. You should be able to get some refried beans
AND one enchilada on a regular small plate...and still have room for
LOTS of chili.
Stick this in the oven at a moderate temperature long enough to heat
through. (You know what your oven will do, where I don't know what
your oven will do. I'd go with 250-300º for 15-20 minutes. If you're
not ready to eat yet, simply turn the oven off to keep the enchilada
warm. If you forget it until the next day, you're on your own, jefe.)
("jefe" - HEH-fay - is Spanish for "boss." Call your
boss that and see
what happens.)
The plate will become VERY hot during this part of the process. No
duh.
Feel free to stick some more cheddar on top and return to oven until
this melts. "It ain't no hangin' matter...Ain't no capital crime..."
(The Rolling Stones? Yup, duh Stones. "Stray Cat Blues," the
archetypal Stones tune that NEVER gets played on the radio. From
Beggar's Banquet, one of their best, but under-appreciated, albums.)
You CAN always fix your enchiladas on one plate, then put 'em on
another plate, repeat (one at a time, Homer), and finally stick in the
oven and cook all at once. You can add more chili to each individual
enchilada later. Heating chili is not rocket science.
Hot sauce: Top with as much as you can stand. If you can't tolerate
hot, spicy stuff (you have my sympathy, but I understand), don't put
any on there. It'll still be good.
F Scott Fitzgerald (author of The Great Gatsby), generally regarded as
one of the 20th Century's greatest writers, was a notoriously bad
speller and spelled "Chile," the name of the country, as "Chili."
If
you can't spell very well, don't feel too bad. It happens to the best
of us...and me, too.
When 5-year-old Fitzgerald had a birthday party, he sat out on the
front porch in his nice little suit awaiting the arrival of his little
friends. When it became clear that NO ONE was going to show up for his
party, he then sadly ate the entire birthday cake, candles and all.
Don'cha just hate it when children go through heartbreaking
experiences? I get all broke up over this little anecdote. (sniff,
sniff)
To get that © symbol (great for sticking after your email name at the
ending of your emails following the valedictory - "Sincerely,"
and
like that), hold down the Alt key and type in the number 0169. When
you release the Alt key, the symbol will appear onscreen.
A tip of the hat (tip!) to Lydia L, a woman of exquisite
sensibilities. (She apparently likes my writing, so my description is
self-evident.) Hey, Lydia! My band plays "Memphis" at all of
our
shows...and people ALWAYS dance to it! (It's a small band, so we
mostly play for small people who do small dances. And our paychecks?
Well...)
Coolness is as coolness does. Be nice to children and pets whether
they deserve it or not. Adults don't enjoy this protection, so...be
cool.
have a good'n,

This is for the request for oven baked ribs:
All you really need to remember is to have a SLOW oven, and all day.
Never, ever over 250 F. Use the dry rub of your choice....meaning you
rub the ribs with a spice mixture that was previously incorporated. I
use salt, cayenne, black pepper, white pepper, chili powder, cumin,
oregano, and just a hint of sage. The amounts depend on your taste.
Rub this dry powder well into the ribs, and slow roast for 4 to 6
hours.
The bones should begin to protrude from the meat, and the aroma should
be heavenly.
After that sauce if you want, and it will melt in your mouth.
Good Luck,
Jerry
