Enchilada Sauce v3 (easy)

July 7, 2024 by Lisa

This is in no way authentic, but it’s now a firm favourite for a few reasons:

  1. It’s easy, easy, easy (and needs no blender or food processor)
  2. It tastes very much like the enchilada sauce I remember from my childhood in California
  3. It’s so easy
  • 3 tablespoons oil
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (more or less depending on how spicy you want it)
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • dried oregano (some)
  • Salt (some)
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • splash of vinegar

Measure and mix the dry ingredients while heating the oil in a saucepan. Stir the tomato paste into the broth. Mix the dry ingredients into the oil like you’re making a roux. Slowly add and stir in the broth and tomato paste until smooth and cook for a couple of minutes.

That’s it! It’s really very nice indeed.
