Prepare the sauce. Melt lard in a medium saucepan, add chili powder, onion, bell pepper, celery and garlic. Cook over medium heat until soft, about 10 minutes. Add corn or instant flour and cook 2 minutes more. Add cream and stock, bring mixture to a boil and stir in cheddar cheese. Stir constantly until melted. Remove sauce from heat and season to taste with salt. Heat oven to 400~, then prepare the enchiladas. Soften tortilla shells by wrapping them in plastic wrap and heating in a microwave oven for 30 to 50 seconds. Combine half of the sauce with the crawfish tails. Fill each tortilla shell with 1/4 cup of this mixture and sprinkle with green onion. Roll shells around filling and fit snugly into a small oven casserole dish. Pour remaining sauce over all and top with shredded Monterey Jack. Bake until enchiladas are heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes.
