Secrets to Taco Bell-Style Chalupas
To make chalupas just like Taco Bell’s, start with the dough. The key ingredient is masa harina, a type of corn flour. Mix it with water, a pinch of salt, and some baking powder to get the dough just right. Then, divide the dough into small balls and press them into thin rounds.
Next, heat up some oil in a pan and fry each round until it’s golden brown and puffy. That’s the signature chalupa shell! For the filling, go for seasoned ground beef, lettuce, cheese, and a dollop of sour cream. Don’t forget a sprinkle of diced tomatoes for that final touch.
