ENCHILADA SAUCE
800g can crushed tomatoes
1½ cups (375ml) basic vegetable stock
(recipe, below right)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped
fresh oregano
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 1 medium brown onion (150g),
chopped coarsely
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped
pickled jalapeños
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon caster sugar
¼ teaspoon ground chilli powder
1 Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Grease a 25cm x 30cm ovenproof dish.
2 Cut zucchini in half lengthways, then cut each half into long, thin wedges. Place zucchini on tray; drizzle with half the oil. Roast for 30 minutes or until just tender; chop coarsely.
3 Meanwhile make enchilada sauce.
4 Brush corn with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Heat a grill plate (or grill or barbecue) over medium-high heat; cook corn, turning occasionally, for 10 minutes or until golden and tender. Using a sharp knife, cut kernels from cobs; discard cobs.
5 Reheat the grill plate (or grill or barbecue) over medium-high heat; cook tortillas for 30 seconds each side or until lightly charred. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm.
6 Combine zucchini, beans, coriander, half the corn, half the fetta, half the oregano and ½ cup enchilada sauce in a large bowl.
7 Divide zucchini filling evenly among warm tortillas; roll to enclose filling. Place tortillas in the ovenproof dish; brush tops with remaining oil. Spoon remaining enchilada sauce over tortillas, leaving 2cm at each end of enchiladas uncovered. Top with remaining fetta and oregano.
8 Bake for 30 minutes or until golden and heated through. Serve topped with remaining corn and extra oregano.
