Enchiladas (the real ones from "el rancho")

Enchiladas (the real ones from "el rancho")

1 chile pasilla, stem and seeds removed (dried chile)
6 chiles california, stem and seeds removed (dried chile)
2 cloves
2 peppercorns
1 small clove of garlic
a piece of onion (how much do you like onions??)
salt
corn tortillas
shredded meat of your choice or cheese
queso cotija, queso fresco, or panela for garnish

Soak the chiles for an hour or 2, until they are the consistency of a fruit roll-up. Stick everything in the blender and pulverize to a thick liquid. Force it through a strainer or cheesecloth into a bowl.

Heat up some oil in a pan. Dip tortilla in sauce and fry it quickly, just until soft. Put filling on tortilla and roll up or, easier and more authentic, fold in half. Sprinkle queso cotija, queso fresco, or panela on top.

Eat.
