Questions

What internal temperature should Enfrijoladas reach?

For Enfrijoladas, the target internal temperature is 180 F (about 80 C), given in step 4. A probe thermometer removes the guesswork.

What can I use instead of sour cream in Enfrijoladas?

The entry for Enfrijoladas calls for 1/2 cup sour cream. In its place: Full-fat plain Greek yogurt, measure for measure. In hot sauces, add it off the heat.

Can I use dried beans instead of canned in Enfrijoladas?

Yes. One 15-ounce can is about one and a half cups of cooked beans, which comes from a generous half cup dried. Soak them overnight and simmer until tender before you start the recipe. As written, the entry for Enfrijoladas uses 2 cans canned black beans, drained.

Can I make Enfrijoladas dairy-free?

Yes. The dairy in Enfrijoladas is 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded, 1/2 cup sour cream. Swap the cheese for a plant-based melting cheese (expect a milder flavor); the sour cream for thick coconut yogurt with a squeeze of lemon. The richness shifts slightly, but the method does not change.

Does Enfrijoladas contain eggs?

Yes: 4 large eggs. The full allergen list for this entry is dairy and eggs. Packaged ingredients vary by brand, so check labels if the allergy is serious.
