Homemade Corn Tortillas

From the Maseca Corn Flour Bag

This recipe is super easy, but you do need a tortilla press. You can find a tortilla press as cheap as $15 on Amazon.com

Ingredients:

2 Cups Corn Flour
1 1/2 Cups of Water
1 tsp Salt
Canola Oil

Directions:

Combine the corn flour, water, and salt in a medium bowl until it forms a dough. Form 16-20 equal sized balls out of the dough. Place plastic wrap on the top and bottom portion of the tortilla press and place a ball in the center. Press down to flatten the ball into a tortilla. Lift tortilla off the press using a spatula (Using your fingers will result in the tortillas breaking and falling apart). Once all of the balls of dough have been pressed into tortillas, heat up a flat pan with a tsp of canola oil. Fry the tortillas until cooked (They won't get brown, that's ok). Fill your freshly made tortillas with salsa, meat, veggies, and other toppings of your choice.
