Ingredients:

1 lb. cooked, shredded beef

2 pts. tomato sauce (small can is what I used)

Vegetables oil

1/2 lb. grated Cheddar cheese (Monterey Jack would be great too!)

12 soft corn tortillas

1/2 tsp. cumin

1 beaten egg (I needed 2)

1-2 c. enchilada sauce

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 c. sour cream

Equipment:

frying pan

baking pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Heat 1/2 inch of oil in skillet and fry tortillas about 15 seconds each side; remove and pat off excess oil. (I omitted this step, it seems like too many unnecessary calories, and it tasted great without it!) In separate skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil and saute onion until tender. Add chili peppers, garlic, tomato sauce, salt, and pepper. Add shredded beef. Simmer uncovered 10 minutes. Dip tortillas in egg, fill with sauce mixture, roll and place in shallow greased baking dish. Pour enchilada sauce over tortillas, top with grated cheese and bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Serve with a dollop of sour cream on each portion. Serves 6.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
