Ingredients

2 cups boiling water

2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules (*)

1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

1/4 teaspoon butter

2 tablespoons dried onion flakes or 1/4 cup finely minced fresh yellow onions

1 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder or 2 teaspoons minced roasted garlic

1 tablespoon dried ancho chile powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon cider vinegar

1 teaspoon dry sherry

Tabasco sauce or your favorite hot sauce, to taste (I used somewhere between 1/4 to 1/2 tsp, cause I'm a whimp)

salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together the boiling water and bouillon granules until dissolved.

Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes.

Use in your favorite enchilada recipes!

*Note: I prefer using 1 tsp of Maggi Chicken with Chipotle bouillon cube and 1 tsp of Chicken and Tomato bouillon cube (in the international aisle, from Nestle products) instead of 2 tsp beef bouillon; please note that most Maggi bouillon cubes contain 2 tsps, so you'll be using half-cubes.

Makes about 4 cups (2 cups is usually enough for one batch of enchilada casserole).

This sounds like a wonderful enchilada sauce...I'm probably more of a wimp than anyone - never liked anything spicy...sounds perfect for me too! Thanks for the great post!

Yay! I've been looking for an enchilada sauce recipe! I hate the canned stuff. The best I;ve ever found is an English brand, believe it or not. I usually make my in-laws bring me a supply when they visit twice a year ... but now I won't have to! Thanks for this.
