Directions

Step 1

Hydrate the tortilla flour according to the instructions to create a firm dough.

Step 2

Divide the masa into 8-10 balls. Gently press them to form half-inch thick disks

Step 3

Place a flat griddle or “comal” over high heat. 

Step 4

Cook the masa disks for one minute on each side and remove from heat.

Step 5

Once cooled until manageable (around one minute), pinch the edges to give the sopes their final casserole shape. 

Step 6

Add the lard or cooking oil into the griddle and gently fry the shaped sopes for a few seconds on each side.  

Step 7

While still warm, spread the refried beans on the sopes. Drizzle half the sopes with green salsa and the other half with red salsa.

Step 8

Coat with queso fresco or grated cheese, shredded lettuce and nopalitos. Serve immediately and enjoy!
