1. First preheat oven to 450.

2. Place all your chilis on a baking sheet leaving space so theyre not touching.

3. Roast chilis for 20 minutes or until blackened but not burnt to a cinder.

4. Remove from oven and seal chilis in a plastic bag and allow to steam in the bag for 20 minutes.

5. Remove chilis and remove as much of the outer skin as possible and ALL the seeds must be removed as well, wear gloves as the capsicum will burn from the seeds.

6. Slice chilis into strips then cut strips in half.

7. Next add the chilis, tomatoes, onions, garlic,salt, cumin and 1 bunch of the Cilantro to a large pot along with 1/2 cup of water.

13. After sauce is prepared its time to assemble the enchiladas.

14. Mix both cheeses together in a bowl.

15. Have your sauce, cheese and tortillas near the microwave.

16. Place 3 tortillas at a time in the microwave and nuke for 30 seconds to soften them (Or they'll crack and break while assembling).

17. Place 1 tablespoon of sauce into center of each tortilla and spread around, place one tablespoon of cheese down center of each tortillas then roll loosely and place folded side down in pan then repeat till pan is completely full, feel free to lightly pack them in there.
