Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas

A note about vegetables: feel free to use broccoli, asparagus, zucchini and other green vegetables, too. Just roast them on a separate baking sheet, since they’ll be done 5 to 10 minutes quicker than those suggested in the recipe.

Working Ahead: The sauce can be made a day or two ahead; refrigerate covered. After the tortillas have been heated in the oven, you need to work quickly and steadily toward serving in order to preserve their beautiful texture. Once out of the oven, the finished dish softens to near mush over a period of 15 to 20 minutes.

Recipe from "Fiesta at Rick's" by Rick Bayless/W. W. Norton & Company, 2010.

1 pound (6 to Cool tomatillos, husked and rinsed
8 cups cubed vegetables (about 1/2-inch cubes are good). Delicious choices are chayote, carrots, white or red onions, small turnips, kohlrabi, mushrooms and peeled butternut squash
1 medium white onion, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
Salt
3 garlic cloves, peeled
12 corn tortillas
Fresh hot green chiles to taste (2 or 3 serranos, 1 or 2 jalapeos)
2/3 cup shredded Mexican melting cheese (like Chihuahua, quesadilla, or asadero) or Monterey Jack, brick or mild cheddar
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus extra for roasting the vegetables and brushing or spraying the tortillas
A few sliced rounds of white onion, separated into rings, for garnish
2 cups vegetable or chicken broth, plus a little extra if needed
Fresh cilantro sprigs, for garnish
1/2 cup Mexican crema, crme frache or heavy (whipping) cream

Yield: 4 to 6 Servings

directions

1 Make the sauce. Roast the tomatillos, sliced onion, peeled garlic and chiles on a rimmed baking sheet 4 inches below a hot broiler until the tomatillos are soft and blotchy black on one side, 4 or 5 minutes. Turn everything over and roast the other side. Remove and reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees.

2 Scrape the tomatillo mixture into a blender or food processor. Process to a smooth puree. Heat the 1 tablespoons of oil in a medium-large (4- or 5-quart) pot over medium high. When the oil is hot enough to make a drop of the puree sizzle, add the puree all at once. Stir nearly constantly for several minutes until darker and thicker. Add the broth and the crema, reduce the heat to medium-low, partially cover and simmer for about 30 minutes.

3 Roast the vegetables. Spread the cubed vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle or spritz with oil, sprinkle with salt and stir to coat evenly. Roast, stirring regularly, until the carrots are crunchy-tender, about 25 minutes.

4 Finish the sauce, heat the tortillas. If the sauce has thickened beyond the consistency of a light cream soup, stir in a little more broth (or water). Taste and season with salt, usually about 1 teaspoon. Lightly brush or spray both sides of each tortilla with oil. Stack, wrap in damp paper towels and microwave on high (100%) for 1 minute to warm and soften.

5 Finish the enchiladas. Smear a few tablespoons of the sauce over the bottom of four to six 9-inch individual ovenproof baking/serving dishes or smear about 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Working quickly so the tortillas stay hot and pliable, roll a portion of the roasted vegetables into each tortilla, then line them all up in the baking dish(es). Douse evenly with the remaining sauce, then sprinkle with the cheese. Bake until the enchiladas are heated through (the cheese will have begun to brown), about 10 minutes. Garnish with onion rings and cilantro sprigs. These are best served piping hot from the oven.
