 120 g Masa Harina

 1 pinch Salt
1

Combine masa harina and water (add water slowly) and kneed in a bowl approx 2 mins.
Dough should be moist but not sticky - ie not crack when small ball is squashed, not sticking to your fingers.

Allow to rest 15 mins + (this lets the dough fully hydrate)

Divide into balls (roughly 40g each) - this is about 10 at the standard amount.

Pre heat non stick pan. Squash the balls in the tortilla press, gently squashing with hand before closing press.
Cook for 30 seconds each side (until the edges come away from the pan) and then flip one last time, when they should puff up.
Store between tea towel while you cook the rest.
