Zubereitung von Texas Red Enchilada Sauce
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes, until a light brown roux forms.
- Add chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

- Gradually whisk in water, ensuring no lumps form.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
