large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, oregano, coriander and cumin
and stir until fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook until soft. Transfer to
processor. Add chilies, soaking liquid and half of onion. Puree until
smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Pour vegetable oil into large skillet and heat over medium heat. One at a
time dip tortillas into sauce and shake off excess. Transfer tortillas, one
at a time, to skillet and cook 10 seconds on each side. Drain on rack.
Combine cheeses in medium bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup cheese. Divide remaining
cheese into 12 portions. Spoon onto lower half of each tortilla. Sprinkle
remaining onion over. Roll up each tortilla to form tube. Arrange on baking
sheet, seam side down. Bake until cheese melts, about 3 to 5 minutes. Heat
remaining sauce. Spoon onto 4 plates. Top with 3 enchiladas. Sprinkle with
remaining cheese and cilantro and serve. This recipe yields 4 servings.
