Try out these homemade beef enchiladas for a midweek meal, they taste as good as they look.
We have used Gia Chilli Puree in the sauce and the beef filling which gives it a spicy kick, add more or less depending on how you like it?
1 teaspoon of chilli puree is approx 2 small chilli peppers.
We also used our Gia Garlic Puree & Eazy Onions in this dish so no need for tears chopping up ingredients! If you have not tried them yet, what are you waiting for?
