Ingredients
- 2 cups masa harina
- 1 1/2 cups warm water , (110 Degrees)
- 8 ounces jack cheese
- 1 Jalapeño , deseeded, deveined and minced
- 1/2 cup cilantro , minced
Instructions
- In a large bowl add the masa harina and water together.
- Mix to form a soft moldable dough. If it's too wet add more masa harina, if too dry add more water by the tablespoon until it makes a nice soft dough.
- Using a large ice cream scoop or a 1/2 cup measure, scoop the dough into your hand and form into a disk about 1/2 inch thick and 3" wide.
- Add the cheese, jalapeno and cilantro to the middle of the disk then gently bring the edges up to form a closed ball with the filling in the middle.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Heat a large griddle on medium-high heat and coat with vegetable oil.
- Add the ball to the griddle and with a large flat spatula carefully flatten it back into a disk, about 1/2" thick.
- Serve immediately or cut through the middle when cooked and stuff with additional ingredients as desired.
