An enchilada is a traditional Mexican dish, which is made in many very different ways. It is typically made with a [[corn]] ([[maize]]) [[tortilla]] dipped briefly in hot [[lard]] or [[oil]] to soften then dipped in the chosen enchilada sauce. The tortillas are filled and rolled up, placed in a casserole dish, then layered with sauce and possibly other additions such as cheese and chopped onions or olives. You can also add cream on the top and accompany your dish with Mexican fried beans.

===Enchilada vs Burrito===
===Enchilada & Burrito differences===
The difference between enchiladas and [[burritos]] is the [[tortilla]].  Enchiladas are made with [[corn]] (maize) tortillas, [[burritos]] are made with [[wheat flour]] tortillas. [[Burritos]] are also often served singly as hand-held take-away food. But at the same time they are very similar because both can include a variety of meat, chicken, cheese, chorizo etc... and they are also eaten at any time of the day.  Very popular in Mexico
