Recipe Summary Easy Enchilada Sauce

A super-speedy enchilada sauce with a truly authentic taste.

Ingredients | El Pato Enchilada Sauce Walmart

¼ cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons self-rising flour

2 tablespoons medium-spice Indian chili powder

1 ½ cups water

1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

1 teaspoon dried oregano

¾ teaspoon ground cumin

¾ teaspoon garlic powder

¾ teaspoon onion salt

salt to taste

Directions

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir flour and chili powder into hot oil, reduce heat to medium, and cook until the flour is lightly brown in color, 3 to 5 minutes.

Gradually stream water and tomato sauce into the flour while stirring until the flour is completely incorporated into a smooth mixture. Stir oregano, cumin, garlic powder, and onion salt into the liquid. Continue cooking until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes; season with salt.

Chili powder has many different levels of spiciness. I had to substitute because i live in India, and many products are not available here. I used Indian chili powder medium spice and 1/4 cup was too spicy for us, very similar to Old El Paso(R) hot enchilada sauce. So I decreased to half the amount. It is better to start off with too little spice and add more later!
