Homemade Gorditas

Gorditas are like pita pockets but considerably more hearty! Can be stuffed with just about anything! I make them using a combination of corn masa mix and all purpose flour.

Items Needed

1 cup masa harina (instant corn masa mix)

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon shortening

1 cup hot water

1 cup oil for frying
