BLACK BEAN VEGGIE ENCHILADAS


INGREDIENTS:


Whole wheat tortillas
5-6
Black beans
1 cup dry
Onion
1 medium chopped
Capsicum
1 small chopped
Broccoli
1 small head cut into florets
Spinach
2 cups chopped
Ginger garlic paste
1 tbsp
Salt
To taste
Black pepper powder
1 tsp
Cumin powder
½ tsp
2 cups
Cheese
½ cup grated
Coriander leaves
2 tbsp chopped
Oil
1 tbsp


METHOD:
  • Wash and soak the black beans for 6-8 hours or overnight. Pressure cook the black beans for 4-5 whistles. As pressure settles, drain and keep the cooked black beans aside.
  • In a pan, add a tbsp of oil. As oil heats, add chopped onion, chopped capsicum and ginger garlic paste. Sauté until onions turn translucent.
  • Add broccoli florets and chopped spinach. Add salt, black pepper powder, cumin powder and mix well.
  • Cook until broccoli turns bright green and spinach wilts. Add the cooked beans and ½ cup of enchilada sauce. Mix and cook for 2-3 mins. Turn off the heat and keep aside.
  • This is a totally optional step. Add 2-3 tbsp of grated cheese to the stuffing after the stuffing has cooled for few mins if you prefer more cheesy enchiladas.

  • Preheat the oven to 400 deg F. Lightly grease a 10.5 x 7 inch pan with cooking oil.
  • Pour ½ cup enchilada sauce into the greased pan and tilt from end to end to evenly coat.
  • Spread little filling mixture in the middle of a tortilla, then tightly wrap by rolling like a burrito wrap/ kathi roll. Place the wrapped tortilla with the open edge down to the one side of pan.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Also stack side by side in pan.
  • Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the enchiladas. Spread the grated cheese evenly over the enchiladas.
  • Don’t cover the pan and bake in oven for 20 mins. if the cheese isn’t golden enough on top, bake for another 2-3 mins.
  • Remove from the oven and cool down for 10-12 mins.  
  • Garnish with coriander leaves and serve warm.

NOTE: Please adjust the spiciness as per your choice. Also increase or decrease the amount of cheese while spreading on top of enchiladas.
