These thin, flexible Mexican flatbreads are made by kneading cornmeal dough and quickly cooking it in a pan. Use them to wrap fillings for tacos, quesadillas, and wraps.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

10 min

Mix the salt into the cornmeal. Gradually add the warm water and knead until you have a soft dough that does not crack.

2

Divide into balls

10 min

Divide the dough into equal small balls, cover, and let them rest for 10 minutes.

3

Roll out thinly

10 min

Roll each ball into a thin round between sheets of parchment paper.

4

Cook in a pan

15 min

Cook each side briefly in a hot skillet, until light brown spots appear. Turn the tortillas quickly; cooking them too long will make them tough.

Reminder

Important: Corn dough is less flexible than wheat dough, so roll it out between a plastic bag or sheets of parchment paper to prevent tearing. Stack the tortillas and cover them with a cloth as soon as they are cooked to keep them soft.

Bekletme süresini atladım, tadı biraz eksik kaldı. Malzemeleri sırayla eklemeyi unuttum, kıvamı biraz farklı oldu.
