Enchiladas

Source: https://bbci.co.uk

Just like many of Mexico’s popular dishes, Echiladas trace their origin back to ancient times when people, particularly the Mayans, enjoyed the simple fare of small fish wrapped inside tortillas made out of maize, the local term for corn. The dish has definitely evolved since then, taking on more complex versions as people learned how to take pleasure from food, rather than merely using it as a source of sustenance to fuel their day.

Nowadays, Enchiladas can be either be made with a traditional corn tortilla, or if preferred, a tortilla made out of flour. The flat “wraps” serve as the canvas for the work of art comprised of different choices of meat, cheese, seafood, beans and greens, all of which marry together into one, comforting and filling dish that is best enjoyed with a slathering of chili sauce.

Many locals enjoy their Enchiladas for breakfast, which is actually a perfect meal in itself since the delicacy provides much needed carbs, protein, fat and fiber, all in a delicious, dish worthy of any gourmet’s sophisticated palate.
