225 g pork breakfast sausage
12 -
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

15 fl oz whole milk

Salt to taste

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat a skillet over medium heat and crumble in the pork sausage. Cook until browned and fully cooked. Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir to coat evenly. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer for approximately 5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder. Keep warm.
02 -
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined. Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring frequently, until eggs are just set but remain creamy. Remove from heat immediately.
03 -
Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a 33x23 cm baking dish. Lay out each tortilla and fill with scrambled eggs, optional cooked potatoes, sliced green onions, and a mix of shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. Roll each tortilla tightly and arrange seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
04 -
Pour the warm sausage gravy evenly over the assembled enchiladas. For extra cheesiness, sprinkle additional shredded cheese on top. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until hot and bubbly.
05 -
Sprinkle with remaining sliced green onions and serve immediately. These enchiladas pair well with hot sauce or fresh fruit for a complete meal.
# Notes:
01 -
To ensure creamy scrambled eggs, remove from heat just before they are fully set, as residual heat will finish the cooking.
