Enchiladas

Dating to Aztec times when corn tortillas were dipped in chili sauce and documented by 16th-century Spanish colonisers, enchiladas are tortillas rolled around meat, cheese, or beans and covered with red or green salsa. They are Mexico's most internationally exported dish and appear in some form across all 31 Mexican states, with regional variations including enchiladas suizas (with cream), mole enchiladas, and enchiladas verdes. The word "enchilada" literally means "chili'd" in Spanish.
