How do you keep corn tortillas from falling apart in enchiladas?

No matter if you’re using corn tortillas for an enchilada casserole or for traditional enchiladas, someones when you roll them they break.

There are a couple of hacks for this. I like to heat a small pan with a lille bit of cooking oil and soften them in the oil over medium heat for may 15 seconds per side. You do not want to cook them so long that they harden .

Or, you can pop about 20 of them in the microwave (cover them in a paper towel first) for about 30 seconds to soften them up.

You could also wrap about 20 of them in some foil (stack them then wrap them) and pop them in an oven at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. This will soften them up as well and make them less likely to tear when you’re rolling them.
