Ingredients

  • Corn masa harina - 1 cup
  • Warm water - 3/4 cup
  • Salt - 1/2 tsp
  • Canned black beans - 1 cup
  • Garlic powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Cumin - 1/2 tsp
  • Olive oil - 1 tbsp
  • Avocado - 1 small, sliced
  • Radishes - 4, thinly sliced
  • Fresh cilantro - 1/4 cup, chopped
  • Lime - 1, cut into wedges

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the corn masa harina, warm water, and salt. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
  2. Divide the dough into 4 equal balls and flatten each ball into a thick disc, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook each disc for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat over medium-low. Add the canned black beans, garlic powder, and cumin. Mash the beans with a fork and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  5. Spread the mashed black beans over each cooked corn disc, creating a small edge to hold the toppings.
  6. Top each sope with sliced avocado, radishes, and chopped cilantro.
  7. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the sopes.
