Mama’s Nachos Crispy Corn Tortilla Chips, Queso, Black Beans, Onions, Tomatoes, Green Bell Pepper, Pickled Jalapenos, Sour Cream 60 servings about 6 oz Entree

25


Tortilla Chips 1. In a large mixing bowl, briefly whisk together masa harina and salt. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups hot water and stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until an evenly mixed dough begins to form. Use your hands to knead the dough for 2-3 minutes in the mixing bowl until it is smooth and forms a cohesive ball. The dough’s texture should feel springy and firm, like PlayDoh. If the dough feels too wet and is sticking to your hands, add in a few extra tablespoons of flour. If it feels too dry and crackly, add in an extra tablespoon or two of hot water. 2. Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 10 minutes. 3. Use a spoon or a medium ice cream scoop to portion the dough into a 2-tablespoon ball, then use your hands to roll the ball until it is nice and round.

4. Place the dough ball between two pieces of plastic in a tortilla press. Then gently press the dough ball until it forms a 4- to 5-inch tortilla. 5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook the tortilla for about 40-60 seconds per side, flipping it once speckled brown spots begin to appear on the bottom of the tortilla.
