Press out dough using a rolling pin or slightly oiled tortilla press. If this part is difficult you may need to adjust masa and water ratio to prevent sticking or cracking. Dough should be about 1/8-inch thick if rolling by hand.

Heat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium-high and brush to coat with vegetable oil. Place a few circles of dough onto the heated surface and cook until slightly charred, about 1 minute. Flip and continue to cook on the second side for about 1 minute. Remove and cover with a towel to keep warm. Repeat with remaining dough.
Helpful Tips:
1. If you don’t have a tortilla press, then use either a heavy cast iron pan or a rolling pin. After cooking the tortillas, wrap them in a cloth napkin to keep them warm.
2. Always slice the steak against the grain to keep it tender.
