What Enfrijolada means
Enfrijolada is a Mexican antojito name of Spanish origin meaning "dipped in beans". It comes from Spanish en- + frijol (bean) + -ada. It is pronounced en-free-hoh-LAH-dah, and it is most associated with Oaxaca.
Frijol itself came from Latin phaseolus by way of Spanish fresol, so the bean of the Americas ended up with an Old World name.

These are the masa-based street foods named for their shape more often than their filling: a sope is a small mound, a huarache is a sandal, a gordita is a fat little one, a tlacoyo is an oval patty.
