Cilantro Lime Corn Tortillas

🥄 Ingredients

• 1 medium bunch of fresh cilantro (washed)
• 1 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 3/4 cup masa harina (more or less)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Trim the bottom of cilantro stems after washing cilantro really well. Roughly chop.

2. 2

   To the blender, add cilantro, 1 3/4 cup of water, salt and lime juice. Blend on high for 45-50 seconds. Strain into a glass bowl. Heat in the microwave just for a minute or so.

3. 3

   Gradually begin to mix in the masa harina until the dough forms. It should be a little tacky but not sticky. Then mix in 1 full tablespoons of finely chopped cilantro. Divide into 20 equal masa balls and flatten slightly. Transfer to large plastic storage bag as you shape them. Let them sit for 20 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat a griddle or comal to medium heat for 5-6 minutes. Line a tortilla press with two pieces of plastic, wax paper or parchment paper.

5. 5

   Press the masa balls until thin. Transfer tortilla to griddle and cook tortillas for about 30 seconds per side. Tortillas should inflate slightly or alot! Place cooked tortillas in a covered pot lined with a kitchen towel. Keep covered with a lid. The steam created will yield a soft flexible tortilla.
