Instructions

Brown the mince in the oil.
Add onions and peppers then sauté until the vegetables are translucent.
Add the smoked paprika, tomato paste, chillies, tomatoes and sugar then simmer on a low heat for 10 minutes.
Stir in the beans, then season to taste and set aside.
Preheat oven to 180C.

Make the sauce by stirring together all the ingredients.

Divide the filling between the 8 tortillas, then roll and fold each one to encase the filling.

Pour a third of the sauce into the bottom of an oven dish, then place the enchiladas on top.

Pour the remaining sauce over the top then sprinkle with cheese.

Bake in a preheated 180C oven for 25 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted and browned.

Serve with guacamole, a dollop of sour cream and a scattering of fresh coriander.
