Huaraches Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Huaraches

    In a large bowl, combine corn masa harina, water, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each into an oval about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Cook the Huaraches

    Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil. Cook each huarache for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Huaraches

    Spread a layer of refried beans on each huarache. Top with shredded lettuce, crumbled queso fresco, sour cream, salsa, and avocado slices.

  4. 4

    Serve warm and enjoy your delicious huaraches!
