  • Lettuce
  • Salsa verde and/or roja

Prepare the masa (corn flour) by mixing Maseca and cold water.
The amount of water is based on how much Maseca you use. The dough should be soft and malleable.




You can make the sopes by hand  by making a ball of dough and patting it between your hands until flat.
Once the sope is formed, place in a hot flat pan. You may cook it with or without oil.



Add the tinga to the sopes.


Along with other ingredients.You can mix and match-the salsas, pico de gallo, queso, sour cream, lettuce, etc.
