Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans black beans undrained, or pinto beans
  • 1-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • ½ cup onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon oregano dried, Mexican
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil plus more for frying (optional
  • 1 ½ cups vegetable stock
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 8 ounces queso fresco plus more for topping
  • onion for topping; sliced, chopped
  • cilantro
  • Mexican crema

Instructions

  1. Add the canned beans, chipotle peppers, onions, garlic, vegetable stock, salt, and oregano into a large blender. Blend until the black bean sauce is silky smooth.
  2. Heat a medium pot or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and pour in the bean sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is hot and bubbly, about 5 minutes. (If the sauce gets too thick, add some water or broth and mix it in.)
  3. To fry (optional): Fill a large sauté pan or deep skillet with about ½ inch of oil and heat over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F. (To test, drop a small piece of tortilla in the oil. If it sizzles, it's ready.) Cooking in batches, carefully add 1 tortilla into the frying oil and fry for about 15 seconds. Transfer it to a large plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil. Continue frying the remaining tortillas.
  4. If not frying, heat up the corn tortillas in a skillet or in the microwave for 1 minute until warm and pliable.
  5. To assemble the enfrijoladas, dip each tortilla into the bean sauce. Transfer the tortilla to a plate and fill with queso fresco. Roll it up like an enchilada, or fold it over like a taco.
  6. Serve immediately topped with sliced red onions, fresh cilantro, and Mexican crema.

Notes

  • Chipotle peppers: Add more or less depending on how spicy you like it. I used 3 peppers with sauce.
  • Queso fresco: If you can’t find queso fresco, use mozzarella, Oaxaca, or even Monterey Jack.
