Dishes to know on this menu

Enchiladas: Tortillas filled, rolled or folded and served with chile sauce or another sauce. Corn tortillas are traditional, but preparation varies widely by region. Rojas use a red sauce, while verdes use a green sauce. Enmoladas replace the chile sauce with mole, and enfrijoladas use a bean sauce. Enchiladas suizas are typically topped with a creamy green sauce and melted cheese. Tex-Mex enchiladas developed their own traditions, including versions topped with cheese, chile con carne or chile gravy. On this menu as: Mole Enchiladas.
Quesadillas: A tortilla folded around a filling and cooked on a griddle or comal. Cheese is standard in many regions, but Mexico City famously complicates the definition: there, a quesadilla may need cheese specifically requested. Fillings can include squash blossom, huitlacoche, mushrooms, meat and many other ingredients. Flour-tortilla quesadillas are particularly common in northern Mexico and the United States. A mulita, associated with northern Baja and Southern California taquerías, sandwiches meat and melted cheese between tortillas. On this menu as: Fajita Quesadillas.
Mole: Not one sauce but an enormous family of sauces built from combinations of chiles, spices, seeds, nuts, fruits, herbs and other ingredients. Some contain chocolate; many do not. Puebla is famous for mole poblano. Oaxaca is particularly celebrated for its variety of moles, including dark mole negro and green mole verde. Mole is commonly served with poultry or other meat, accompanied by rice and tortillas, but both recipes and uses vary widely. On this menu as: Mole Enchiladas.
Fajitas: Grilled strips of meat served with tortillas and accompaniments, often arriving at U.S. restaurants on a dramatically sizzling metal platter with onions and peppers. Fajitas developed in the ranching and border culture of Texas and northern Mexico and became a Tex-Mex restaurant staple. The name comes from faja, referring to the strip or belt-like cut associated with skirt steak. Chicken, shrimp and other versions are now common. Alambre is a different Mexican dish that may scratch a similar itch: chopped grilled meat with peppers and onions, often with bacon and melted cheese. On this menu as: Fajita Quesadillas.
Pozole: A substantial soup or stew built around hominy: large kernels of nixtamalized corn. Pork and chicken are common. Pozole rojo gets its color and flavor from red chiles, verde from green ingredients that can include tomatillos, green chiles, herbs and seeds, while blanco leaves the broth comparatively plain. It is usually served with a generous collection of garnishes such as shredded cabbage or lettuce, radish, onion, oregano, lime and tostadas. Pozole is strongly associated with celebrations, holidays and weekend meals. On this menu as: Chicken Pozole Verde Soup.
Guacamole: A preparation built around mashed or crushed avocado. Common restaurant versions add some combination of onion, cilantro, chile, lime and salt. Tomato appears in some versions and inspires surprisingly strong opinions. Guacamole may be chunky or smooth, prepared tableside or made ahead, and recipes vary enormously by region and kitchen. On this menu as: Guacamole.
