Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel and cube potatoes, boil in salted water for 10 to 15 minutes until tender, then mash.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté chopped onion for 5 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Combine mashed potatoes, rinsed black beans, corn, cumin, and paprika in the skillet. Mix and cook for another 5 minutes.
  4. Coat a baking dish with enchilada sauce. Fill tortillas with the potato mixture, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the dish.
  5. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the assembled enchiladas, cover with foil, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove foil in the last 5 minutes.
  6. Allow to cool slightly, garnish with cilantro and avocado, and serve.
