I think if you buy some masa harina meal, the recipe for making corn tortillas will be on the bag. I believe they are made with the masa harina and water. I can get masa harina in any grocery store that has the International aisle.

Easiest way is to buy the corn tortillas. Put some oil into a frying pan, heat till really hot (350F.) With tongs put a tortilla into the hot oil, let it sit on one side for a few seconds, turn over to other side for a few seconds. Then with the tongs fold the tortilla in half holding the bottom side in the oil. Then flip it over and let the other fold sit in the oil. It should start to harden. Take shell out and drain onto a paper towel.

Years ago a friend of mine made homemade taco shells, and I lost the recipe. Does anyone have a recipe? It was so simple and the tacos were so soft. Thanks.
