Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
¾ cup shortening
¾ cup hot water

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Either by hand or with a pastry cutter, cut in the shortening till the mixture is crumbly. If the mixture looks more floury than crumbly, be sure to add just one or two more tablespoons of shortening till it is crumbly. Add about 3/4 cup hot water to the mixture, or just enough to make the ingredients look moist.
  • With your hand or a large fork, knead the mixture making sure to rub the dough against the sides of the large mixing bowl to gather any clinging dough. If the dough still sticks to the side of the bowl, add a couple more tablespoons of flour until the dough forms a soft round shape. The dough is ready to roll out now, but it is best to let it rest. Cover it with a dish towel, and let it sit for about an hour or so.
  • Take the dough, and pull it apart into 10 to 12 balls. Lightly flour your rolling area, and roll each ball with a rolling pin to about 1/8 inch thickness.
  • Place each tortilla on a medium hot cast iron skillet. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla does not look doughy.

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces chorizo sausage
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas
6 eggs
¼ cup milk
½ teaspoon pepper

½ cup salsa

Steps:

  • Crumble the sausage into a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until evenly brown. Set aside.
  • Heat one skillet over medium heat, and heat another skillet over high heat. The skillet over high heat is for warming tortillas. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Spray the medium heat skillet with some cooking spray, and pour in the eggs. Cook and stir until almost firm. Add the sausage, and continue cooking and stirring until firm.
  • Meanwhile, warm tortillas for about 45 seconds per side in the other skillet, so they are hot and crispy on the edges, but still pliable.
  • Sprinkle a little shredded cheese onto each tortilla while it is still hot. Top with some of the scrambled egg and sausage, then add hot pepper sauce and salsa to your liking.

Categories     Cheese     Pepper     Bake     Casserole/Gratin     Cheddar     Sausage     Summer     Bon Appétit     Michigan

Yield 4 Main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 4-ounce can chopped mild green chilies
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
12 6-inch-diameter flour or corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Sauté sausage in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until brown, breaking up clumps with back of spoon, about 7 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer sausage to 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish or other ovenproof pan. Mix chopped green chilies, 3 tablespoons cilantro and hot sauce into sausage. Sprinkle cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, then remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro over sausage mixture. Bake casserole 10 minutes.
  • Wrap tortillas tightly in foil. Place in oven to heat through alongside sausage casserole. Continue to bake casserole until cheeses bubble and sausage mixture is heated through, about 10 minutes longer.
  • Serve sausage and cheese mixture with warm tortillas.

Tips:

- When choosing Mexican sausage, look for a brand that is made with high-quality pork and spices. Avoid sausages that are made with fillers or extenders. - To get the best flavor from the tortillas, use fresh masa harina. Masa harina is a type of corn flour that is made from dried corn kernels that have been soaked in limewater. - If you don't have a tortilla press, you can roll out the dough by hand. To do this, place a ball of dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a thin circle. - To make sure the tortillas are cooked evenly, cook them over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the tortillas will burn. - Once the tortillas are cooked, keep them warm in a tortilla warmer or a covered dish. This will help them stay soft and pliable.

Conclusion:

Mexican sausage tortillas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can be filled with a variety of ingredients, such as eggs, cheese, beans, and salsa. They can also be served with a side of sour cream, guacamole, or pico de gallo. With a little bit of practice, you can make perfect Mexican sausage tortillas at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
