    Yields 12 enchiladas.

    12 corn tortillas, warmed
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/2 cup finely chopped onion
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon chili powder
    1 cup tomato puree
    1/2 cup beef or chicken stock
    1 teaspoon cumin
    Raw onion, finely minced
    Longhorn cheese, shredded
    Cooked ground beef or shredded chicken (optional)

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

    Heat the olive oil in a heavy saucepan and sauté the garlic and chopped onion until golden. Add the chili powder, tomato puree and stock. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cumin. Spread sauce over the tortillas and place equal amounts of minced raw onion and shredded longhorn cheese in the center of each tortilla.
