Treat your ingredients with care...
- Black beans — If using canned black beans, rinse them thoroughly before blending. If using dried black beans, soak them overnight and cook until tender before blending.
- Corn tortillas — To make the tortillas more pliable, you can warm them in the microwave for a few seconds or wrap them in a damp towel and heat them in the oven.
Tips & Tricks
- For added flavor, you can roast the vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper before adding them to the enfrijoladas.
- Customize the roasted vegetables based on your preference and seasonal availability.
- If you prefer a spicier version, add some chopped jalapenos or a dash of hot sauce to the bean sauce.
- Serve the enfrijoladas with a side of Mexican rice and a fresh salad for a complete meal.
- Leftover enfrijoladas can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
Serving advice
Serve the enfrijoladas hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and sliced avocado. Accompany them with a side of Mexican rice and a dollop of sour cream or vegan sour cream for added creaminess.
Presentation advice
Arrange the enfrijoladas on a platter, ensuring they are neatly rolled and topped with melted cheese. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and neatly arranged slices of avocado for an appealing presentation.
