Sweet Roast with Tortillas

 

1 1/3 C. water

2 C. Masa Harina De Maiz mix

2 (12-oz.) cans roast beef or I quart home-canned roast beef

1 C. salsa

1 C. brown sugar

 

In a medium bowl, combine water and tortilla mix. Knead dough about 5 minutes. Shape tortilla dough into 1 ½ inch balls. Press balls of tortilla dough between wax paper using a rolling pin or a tortilla press. Remove wax paper and cook each side of the tortilla 30 to 45 seconds on a hot griddle. Tortillas should be soft and pliable. Stack tortillas and cover with a slightly damp cloth to keep warm and soft.

In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine roast beef, brown sugar, and salsa. To serve, place 3 to 4 spoonfuls of meat mixture in a warm tortilla. If available, garnish with avocado, diced tomato, cilantro, olives and / or a dollop of Sour Cream.
