Directions

  1. Mix flour, water, vegetable oil, egg, and salt in a large bowl, knead until dough is smooth and no longer sticky.

  2. Form the dough into 8 golf ball-sized balls. Cover and let rest, about 20 minutes.

  3. Stretch each ball of dough into a thick tortilla.

  4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla until browned and lightly puffed, about 1 minute per side.

  5. Layer refried beans, avocado, and queso fresco over tortillas. Drizzle crema on top, fold tortillas in half over filling.

Recipe Note

In El Salvador there are pupusas. In Mexico there are tacos. In Honduras there are Baleadas. The simple version consists of a thick flour – though sometimes corn – tortilla that has been put on a charcoal grill. It's slathered in refried black beans and a bit of white farmers cheese then folded over like an American-style soft taco.
