Enchiladas Verdes - Green Chili


cheese, eggs, mexican

12 corn tortillas
4 tablespoon oil or lard
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon flour
4 cup green chili sauce
1 salt to taste
2 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup minced onion

Fry tortillas in fat to soften. Heat garlic in oil then discard garlic. Blend flour into oil. Stir in green chili sauce and heat thoroughly. If mixture is too thick, add water. Add salt to taste. Layer tortillas with sauce, minced onion and cheese on oven-proof plates. Sprinkle cheese on top. Use 3 tortillas for each serving. Place in oven to allow cheese to melt. NOTE: For a real New Mexican touch place a poached or fried egg on top. The egg seems to help meld the flavors.
