Remember, life is a constant experiment, so I think it doesn’t matter if your dish doesn’t look exactly as it should (like mine)... beauty isn’t always on the outside, haha. Practice makes perfect, and we’re all students and teachers at the same time. Enjoy!

Steps

30 minutes

1

Make the dough by slowly mixing the warm water with the masa harina until you have a smooth, even consistency. Add the salt and lard as you knead, then let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.
2

While the dough rests, cook the chorizo or bacon in a skillet—just a small piece for flavor, but it’s optional. When it’s almost done, add the chopped onion. After about 3 minutes, add the tomato and cook over low heat for 5 more minutes. Cover if possible. Once the tomato is well cooked, add the beaten eggs. Set this mixture aside to use as a topping for the huaraches.
3

Take the dough and place a tablespoon of refried beans in the center of each ball of dough. If you don’t have a tortilla press, you can flatten the dough between two boards. Mine turned out round, but that’s okay!
4

Add your filling (you can also use a salad of diced cactus for a lighter dish). Garnish with sour cream, lettuce, and shredded cheese, and enjoy!
