Enchiladas Queretanas

Enchiladas Queretanas

• Tortillas (as many as you would like)
• enchilada sauce (as soon as I learn how to make enchilada sauce from scratch I will post the recipe...but for now use canned sauce unless you already know how to make some)
• White onion (about 1/4 of an onion for every 3 tortillas)
• Olive oil or vegetable oil (enough to coat the bottom of your frying pan)
• Shredded white Mexican cheese (you can find a good cheese like this in the "Cacique" brand called "Oaxaca" at walmart...shred as must as you would like to stuff your tortillas)

Directions:

1. Cut onion into very small pieces.
2. Shred your cheese.
3. Toss shredded cheese and onion together.
4. Pour some enchilada sauce on tortillas…enough to cover both sides.
5. Put a portion of shredded cheese and onion mixture in the center of the tortilla and roll up very tight.  Don't make them very thick.  Make them so that when they are rolled up they are about ½-¾ an inch thick. 
6. Place in frying pan and fry until slightly crispy on the outside. ENJOY!

*My parents say that this is the traditional meal here in Querétaro. They serve their enchiladas with lettuce, carrots, and broccoli.
