Beef
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves (, minced)
1 onion (, finely chopped (~1 cup))
1 lb / 500g ground beef ((mince))
400g / 14oz refried beans ((1 can, I use Old El Paso))
400g / 14oz black beans, drained ((1 can, Note 3))
Enchiladas

Directions
Mix together Spice Mix ingredients. Set aside.
Enchilada Sauce
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and mix to combine into a paste. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Add 1/2 cup chicken broth, whisk straight away then it will turn into a thick smooth paste quite quickly.
Add remaining chicken broth, passata, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of SPICE MIX. Whisk
Increase heat slightly to medium high. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, whisking regularly, until the sauce thickens to the consistency of thick syrup (see video). Remove from stove.
Filling
Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
Heat oil in a skillet over high heat. Add garlic and onion, cook for 2 minutes.
Add beef and cook for 2 minutes, breaking it up as you go. Add remaining Spice Mix. Cook for a further 2 minutes or until completely brown.
Add refried beans, black beans, about 1/4 cup of Enchilada Sauce + salt & pepper. Mix (Note 4) and cook for 2 minutes then remove from stove (see video).
Enchiladas
Smear a bit of Sauce on the bottom of a baking dish (stops sliding).
Place filling on the lower third of a tortilla. Roll up then place in the baking dish, seam side down. Repeat with remaining Filling & Tortillas.
Pour Sauce over the Enchiladas, top with cheese, bake for 10 minutes covered (Note 5) then 10 minutes uncovered. Serve hot!
