Taco Ingredients

Method

Taco Directions

  1. 1

    Make the Corn Tortillas

    In a mixing bowl, combine the masa harina and salt. Gradually add water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth.

  2. 2

    Form and Cook Tortillas

    Divide the dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Using a tortilla press or rolling pin, flatten each ball between two pieces of plastic wrap. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    Cook your chosen filling (beef, chicken, beans, or veggies) as desired and set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a tortilla on a plate, add a portion of the filling, and top with chopped cilantro and diced onions. Fold the tortilla over the filling.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite salsa or hot sauce.
