Enchiladas

Enchiladas

This popular Mexican food consists of a tortilla (typically corn) filled with a meat (beef, chicken, seafood - you name it!) and/or cheese mixture which is then rolled up. The enchilada is then usually covered with a red sauce, but white and green (verde) sauces are common too.
