This weekend I made this dish with my mother, she has a special touch with food. I can never achieve the same taste on my own, so they tasted especially good. Try them... these "scalloped-cheese-stuffed-tortillas" are delicious and make a perfect side dish. Add shredded chicken and it can be a main dish.
Ingredients
12 Tortillas Salvadoran style
1/2 cup cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 cup heavy cream
salt
pepper
loroco (can be omitted if not available)
Make the Tortillas
corn flour
water.
Mix the corn flour (like Maseca brand) with water and make into a firm dough, add more or less flour as needed. Form dough into 5" patties about 1/2 inch thick and cook on a dry hot gridded, do not use any grease. Cook 2 minutes per side. Let them cool.
Assemble the dish
Shred the cheeses and mix with chopped loroco and a teaspoon of salt. Slice each tortilla in half and fill with cheese/loroco mixture, layer the filled tortillas in the bottom of a 9x9 oven safe pan, put a layer of cheese on top and place another layer of filled tortillas, drizzle the heavy cream over the entire dish, fill up to 1/2", , salt and pepper to taste. Put another layer of cheese on top.
Bake in a pre heated 325° over for 30 minutes or until bubbly and brown on top.
