1
Tortillas can vary considerably in terms of their flexibility to be rolled. If they are very fresh you may be a able to roll them without softening. But for most tortillas you have to make them pliant. You either heat them on a griddle and place them under a damped towel to stay warm and moist or you can quickly fry them in hot oil until they are soft and then drain them on papers towels.
2
Mix one cup of the chili sauce with the meat. Place 1/4 cup of the mixture and roll is up. Place in a large oblong baking dish. Scatter the onions over the enchiladas. Cover them with the grated cheese, then the remaining sauce.
3
Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Take the enchiladas out and spread the sour cream even over them. Return to the oven for at least ten minutes. The sour cream should be hot and gently bubbling. Test the center. When it is hot serve immediately.
