   Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and butter to the same pot. Cook onion in hot butter-oil until onion starts to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in salt, cumin, paprika, cayenne, and black pepper; cook until onion is soft. Mix in garlic and cook for 1 minute.

3. 3

   Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle flour over onion and garlic. Cook, stirring for 3 minutes. Slowly pour enchilada sauce into onion mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Mix in water and green salsa until well combined.
