Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Cook the onions and carrots for 5-8 mins until soft - add a splash of water if they start to stick. Sprinkle in the chilli powder and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the tomatoes and pulses and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and simmer for 5-10 mins, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove from the heat and season well.
  2. Heat grill to high. Spread a spoonful of the bean chilli over a large ovenproof dish. Lay each tortilla onto a board, fill with a few tbsp of chilli mixture, fold over the ends and roll up to seal. Place them into the ovenproof dish. Spoon the remaining chilli on top.
  3. Mix the yogurt and grated cheese together with some seasoning, and spoon over the enchiladas. Grill for a few mins until the top is golden and bubbling. Serve with a green salad.

    A tasty dish that's very easy to make. Will definitely be making this when we have vegetarians over for food. I only put 2 tsp of hot chilli powder in, next time think i'll do 3 as was quite mild. Worth a try.

    This was yummy and so, so easy to make! I thought I'd hate the lack of meat but I really didn't. We had it with Mexican rice and garlic bread. Definitely bookmarking this one!

    Dead easy to make, I'll be making sure I have beans in cupboard, as it'll be a great store cupboard standby. Really tasty, I added a bit of ready mixed Mexican spices as well, and used Greek yoghurt as this is what I had.

    Nothing like any enchiladas I've ever had. They should have lots of cheese or meat and sauce. This just tasted like tomatoey beans wrapped in a tortilla, which I should have expected from the recipe but still I hoped. Its like some other recipe wrapped in a tortilla claiming to be an enchilada.

    Loved these, very tasty. Even better if reheated & eaten the following day. Will definately make these again.

    Not bad, but they'd give non-vegetarians a bad idea of vegetarian food. I anticipated a lack of flavour looking at the ingredients list so I added a couple of heaped teaspoons each of ground cumin and coriander, plus some salsa in with the filling. Don't think I'd make again, though.

    Really enjoyed these even my meat loving husband said they were very tasty. I may try it with rice instead of the tortillas as a veggie chilli. A winner and I will be making them again soon

    Really enjoyed this, was so quick to make after work. I somehow forgot to buy any carrots so used what was in the fridge, chopped courgettes, leeks and baby corn. Also put in half chilli powder and half smoked paprika. Gave it a nice taste. I warmed the tortillas in the microwave before filling as I was worried about them not being warmed through enough. Also added a lot more cheese which I felt made it even better! Served with a green salad and a nice glass of chilled white wine....Yum

    Very yummy in the end, but a bit bland without a few additions. Added garlic to the onions, zucchini in with the carrot, and also added a veggie stock cube, cumin and tomato paste along the way. Left the cheese out, and served with sour cream and guacamole - tasty!

    These were ok but I think plain tortillas would work better. I would also reccomend using the sauce only inside the wraps to avoid it going as soggy.

    I have just made this recipe, and I made some changes, which I felt made the dish better. I put three tins of pulses in, instead of two and put cheese on top instead of yoghurt. The dish was delicious and we didn't miss the meat at all. I will definitely consider making this recipe again.

    Loved the yoghurt cheese topping, added cumin and and garlic and also chopped mushrooms. Everyone including the kids enjoyed. Looking forward to using fresh lasagne with the same mix and some cheese sauce...yum

    Although unsure whether the kids will eat this as their first every vegetarian meal, it seemed a good alternative to the normal chicken enchiladas they have. Everyone LOVED it! Its easy, not expensive and very filling...chicken out, beans in!

    This was delicious! Didn't add the yoghurt at the end, just used plain cheese instead. Served with home made guacamole and some rice.
