Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over low heat.

Add 1/2 diced onion and sauté for around 5 minutes until translucent.

Add 500 grams of minced beef, breaking it up into small pieces, and brown until well caramelized.

Add 2.5 tablespoons of taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water, cooking on medium heat until the water evaporates.

Remove the pan from heat and allow the meat to cool to room temperature.

Spread 1 cup of enchilada sauce evenly on the bottom of a large pyrex dish.

Place around 1/3 cup of the beef mixture and 1/4 cup of shredded cheese into each small tortilla, then roll them up tightly.

Carefully place the rolled tortillas seam side down in the pyrex dish, as close together as possible.

If there is leftover meat, sprinkle it over the top of the tortillas.

Top with 1 cup of enchilada sauce, ensuring all tortillas are covered to prevent drying out during baking.

Sprinkle 1/2 cup of grated cheese on top and bake for around 20 to 25 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius until bubbly and golden brown.

Garnish with sliced green onions and coriander, and serve with rice, corn salsa, and sour cream.
