Picaditas

Picaditas are a traditional Mexican dish made with corn dough, topped with refried beans, salsa, and cheese.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a large bowl, combine the masa harina, water, and salt. Knead until the dough is smooth and pliable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each one into a small disc.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Fry the dough discs in the hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
Remove the picaditas from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Spread a layer of refried beans on each picadita, followed by a spoonful of salsa and a sprinkle of queso fresco.
Serve the picaditas warm.
