Enfrijoladas (black bean sauce enchiladas)
Oaxaca and central Mexico — a home cooking dish; made as a quick meal or for using leftover beans
Enfrijoladas are enchiladas coated in a black bean sauce instead of chile sauce — corn tortillas dipped in warm pureed black bean sauce (made with epazote, chipotle or pasilla, and lard), filled with cheese or chicken, and served with crema and queso fresco. The bean sauce is thin enough to coat the tortillas but thick enough to cling. A simple, economical dish that is a vehicle for leftover beans. Common in Oaxaca and central Mexico.
