Homemade Tostada Shells | Makes 6
FULL RECIPE POST: www.dontgobaconmyheart.co.uk/...
INGREDIENTS
6 Corn Tortillas (6-7")
Salt, as needed
Vegetable (1 cup/250ml for frying or 1-2 tbsp for baking)
METHOD
Baking:
Pre heat oven to 200C/390F.
Stab each tortilla a few times with a sharp knife. This will help steam escape as they cook. Lightly brush both sides with oil and sprinkle with a small pinch of salt.
Spread out on a baking tray (you'll probably get 3 per tray), then pop in the oven for 4-5mins or until they JUST start to brown. Keep on eye on them as they go from perfect to burnt very quickly. If you spot the outside browning quicker than the middle, take them out and lower temp to 180C/350C (all ovens can be different).
After 4-5mins take them out and use a spatula or fork to push down on any steam bubbles. Flip the tortillas, rotate the trays then pop back in the oven for another 4-5mins. Again, just be vigilant. Remove from oven and rest on a wire rack. They will crisp as they cool.
Frying:
Stab tortillas a few times with a sharp knife.
Heat up enough oil to comfortably cover the base of your pan to around 1/4" high. Around 1 cup/250ml should suffice depending on the size of your pan. You want the oil sizzling but not smoking. If you have a thermometer aim for between 170C/340F - 180C/350F.
Use a pair of tongs to carefully slide the tortilla into the oil. Immediately grab your spatula and gently push down on the tortilla to flatten any bubbles and keep the tortilla under the oil.
After around 30-45 seconds (or until the bottom side starts to brown), use two spatulas to carefully flip the tortilla and fry for another 30-45 seconds. Remove tortilla and rest on wire rack. They'll crisp as they cool. Again, just be vigilant because these will burn quickly. Better to remove them from the oil early than to leave them too long and burn.
Sprinkle both sides of the tortilla with a light pinch of salt.

Anyone in the UK knows tostadas/tostada shells are pretty scarce! So easy to whip up your own though. Any guess what the next video is? 🤪Chris. x
How do you even find corn tortillas in the UK? I can only ever find flour tortillas.

Thank you so much for the recipe and the English ingredients and English directions😍

What temperature do you bake it at plz
Gracias🎉
Where's the timing for the baking?
Tostados shells baked fattening
Nope that tostada bent at the end not a real way to make tostada. The right way is let a corn tortilla sit over night for 24 hours then fry it
Terrible
