Directions:1. Preheat oven to 350F

4. Remove the pulled pork into a bowl.
5. Add the corn, black beans, 1/2 cup enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup cheese into the bowl and mix to combine.
6. Spread 1/2 cup of Enchilada Sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
7. Place 1/2 packed cup of filling (from step 5) into a tortilla and roll up and place in the baking dish.
8. Pour over the remaining Enchilada Sauce
9. Bake for 10 minutes.
10. Remove from oven and scatter the cheese on
11. Bake for a further 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. |

Notes: Enchilada Sauce: This recipe is not made with what America called Chili Powder which is a mix of spices, not just chili. Because American Chili Powder differs from brand to brand and is not available all over the world, this recipe is made from scratch, essentially making a DIY American Chili Powder.
