Ingredients
- 1.5 kg (3lb) chuck roast
- 2 cups beef stock
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves peeled
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 400 g (14oz) tomatoes
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp Coriander
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 2 tsp chili powder
For the enchilada sauce
- 3 cups beef cooking liquid
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
For the enchiladas
- 10 flour tortillas
- 2-3 cups grated cheese
- Sliced avocado
- sour cream
- fresh cilantro/coriander
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
- Season the chuck roast generously on all sides with salt and pepper. Place the chuck roast in a large roasting dish then pour in the beef stock, onion, garlic, tomatoes and spices.
- Cover with foil then place in the oven and allow to cook for 2-3 hours until the beef is soft and tender.
- Remove the beef from the roasting pan then strain the cooking liquid into a measuring jug.
- Pour 3 cups of cooking liquid into a saucepan and add a few teaspoons of cornstarch mixed with two tablespoons of water.
- Allow to simmer over medium heat until thickened.
- Shred the beef (I find it easiest to put the beef in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment to quickly shred the beef).
- Combine with 1 cup of the thickened cooking sauce then season to taste.
- Fill each tortilla with the shredded beef mixture and a bit of shredded cheese then roll up and place in a baking dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the top then add the remaining cheese.
- Place the enchiladas back in the oven and allow to bake for 10-15 minutes until hot and bubbling.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes then top with avocado, fresh cilantro leaves and sour cream.
