Enchiladas offer a complex layering of flavors. The core flavors come from the tortillas, the savory filling, and the rich, spicy chili sauce. Cheese adds creaminess, while toppings like onions, sour cream, or cilantro contribute freshness and brightness.
The flavor profile of enchiladas is highly dependent on the specific ingredients used. Corn tortillas provide an earthy base. Fillings can range from seasoned ground beef, shredded chicken, or cheese to beans or vegetables, each adding its own unique element. The chili sauce, often made from dried chiles, provides a depth of flavor that can range from mild and fruity to intensely spicy. The type of cheese also plays a role; Oaxaca cheese, Monterey Jack, or cheddar are commonly used, each offering a different melt and flavor. Toppings like crema or sour cream add tanginess, while onions and cilantro provide a sharp, herbaceous counterpoint.

Tortilla Preparation
Lightly fry or warm the tortillas before filling and rolling. This makes them more pliable and prevents them from cracking when rolled.
Sauce Consistency
Ensure your chili sauce is not too thick or too thin. A medium consistency will coat the tortillas evenly without making them soggy.
Filling Amount
Don't overfill the tortillas. Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and can cause them to break apart.
Cheese Choice
Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor. Monterey Jack, Oaxaca, or a Mexican blend are excellent choices.
