Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- masa
- salt
Season the masa with salt, spreading the salt over it rather than in one line, and knead it in.
Break off a piece of masa, flatten it and cook it on a very hot comal; turn it and pinch around the edges to make a border.
- asiento
- pork belly
Render pork belly until a little caramelized and brown for the asiento; put a little of the fat on the masa.
- black bean puree
- avocado leaf
- Parmesan and Romano mix
- red sauce
- chorizo
Top with black bean puree made with avocado leaf, the red tomato sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan and Romano mix; let everything cook together on the comal.
Toppings: bean puree and cheese
