Varieties of this dish can be found in every market place throughout Mexico City. It’s simple but full of Mexican flavours, and ours is made even more special with the use of fresh Australian nopales (cactus).
It requires masa (a dough made from corn) which can be purchased from a tortilleria or made using masa harina (a corn flour made in Mexico) and water. If you’re unable to find local cactus, you can replace it with tinned nopales which can be found in any Latin produce store.
