No-Flour Corn Tortillas: Crispy and Delicious, a Popular Japanese Snack

As friends who often watch Japanese dramas know, corn tortillas are very popular in Japan and can be found at roadside stalls, convenience stores, and fast food restaurants. Although it is called 'corn tortilla', it does not contain cola. 'Cola' is an transliteration because the Japanese pronunciation is similar to the Chinese pronunciation of 'cola', so it was translated into 'corn tortilla' by Japanese drama subtitles and widely circulated and came to be known.

Just out of the oven, the corn tortilla has a golden appearance, crispy outer layer, and soft interior, with a rich texture, which is delicious to eat with tomato sauce or sweet and sour sauce. The method is not difficult, without kneading and fermenting, it can be completed in about ten minutes, satisfying cravings and filling the stomach. Let's take a look at the method together.

Ingredients:

Potatoes 2, eggs 1, mixed vegetables 50g, onion 20g, bacon 40g, maltodextrin 2 large spoons, breadcrumbs appropriate, salt half a spoon, black pepper powder a little, vegetable oil appropriate.

Method:

1. Peel the potatoes, cut them into small pieces and put them into a bowl, cover them with plastic wrap, and put them in the microwave for about 5 minutes.

Small tips: You can also steam the potatoes in a steamer, but using a microwave is more convenient and doesn't require adding water, the moisture of the potatoes themselves is just right, it won't stick to your hands.

2. Take out the plastic wrap and press the potatoes into a paste, slightly cool down (be careful of the hot steam).

3. Add the mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables, onion, bacon, salt and black pepper powder, and stir evenly.

Small tips: Bacon can also be replaced with minced meat, and the amount can be adjusted according to personal taste.

4. Shape the mixed potato mash into small circles of uniform size and thickness, prepare starch, egg liquid and breadcrumbs.

Small tips: If you like cheesy explosive fillings, you can also put a slice of cheese in the middle of the cake, and when it's fried, there will be a cheesy filling inside.

5. First, dip the potato cake in starch to coat it completely, and shake off the excess.

6. Then, dip it in egg liquid and coat it evenly.

7. Finally, roll it in breadcrumbs to make sure all the surfaces are coated.

8. Add appropriate vegetable oil to the pot, heat to 60%, and put the corn tortilla into the pot to fry.

9. Fry both sides until golden and crispy, and take it out and place it on oil paper to drain the oil.

Small tips: Pay attention to the fire, don't fry it for too long, because the main ingredients are mostly semi-cooked and easy to cook, and it's easy to cook through.
