Tortilla Flats

2 cups Mexican corn flour
1 1/3 cups warm water
1 tsp salt

Mix the ingredients together to form a soft dough. Roll into balls the size of small eggs and place between two pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper in a tortilla press. Flatten to form round disks about 4 inches in diameter. Heat a large skillet over moderate heat and cook the tortillas one at a time until very lightly browned on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Note: the skillet should be dry and ungreased. Serve immediately, or keep warm wrapped in aluminum foil in a 150F oven for up to several hours before serving. Makes about 24 flats.
