Dry Enchilada Sauce Mix Substitute

flower7's Note:

I came across a recipe recently that called for dry enchilada mix but I couldn't find it at the store. I searched around a bit and eventually came up with this recipe to use in its place. One recipe is the equivalent of a 1.5 oz package.

• Total Time: 5 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 1.5 ounces

• 2 teaspoons mild chili powder
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons dried onion flakes
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon oregano
• ½ teaspoon ground coriander
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients together and store in airtight container.

Made for PAC Spring 2009. Other than the fact that I wasn't sure how to use this (I used about 1 cup of water and an 8 oz can of tomato sauce), this was awesome. Even DH commented on how good it was ~ he usually doesn't comment much unless he really likes something. I do have my own enchilada sauce recipe posted, but it is time consuming. Will definitely make then when I'm time crunched. Would be a great recipe to make up in advance so you have it on hand. Thanks for posting this Flower!

Made this last night......VERY AWESOME!!!! I used 1 cup water and an 8 oz can of tomato sauce- then simmered for 3 or 4 minutes. I will be making small mason jars of this mix to give at Christmas time. Thanks for this great recipe!

In my estimation there's not too much difference between Cajun and Mexican foods. They're both southern, both spicy and both good with beer. What more can I say? Made for Alphabet Soup Tag.
