Simple homemade taco shells from scratch: tacos are not difficult at all with this step-by-step recipe and picture guide!
1) Add the flour, sugar, ground curcuma and a pinch of salt to a large mixing bowl or a blender.
2) Add the warm water and give it a good stir or pulse for 10 seconds until you end up with a slightly sticky yellow dough ball.
3) Then transfer the dough to a floured surface, sprinkle with a little extra flour and knead the dough for a couple of seconds. Shape it into a ball and wrap it up in some cling film. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes. Then shape the dough into small balls. Roll them out on a lightly floured surface using a rolling pin. Don’t make them too thin. Make sure the dough doesn’t stick to the surface. Then with a serving ring or glass cut out a neat circle.
4) Place the dough circles on some cling film. Gather the dough scraps and divide this into 2 balls. Make 2 more tacos. You should end up with 8 tacos. Place a non-stick pan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Don’t add any oil or butter. Place a dough circle in the hot pan and let it bake for a minute. Then flip it over using a spatula.
5) Bake it on the other side for 2 more minutes. Make sure it doesn’t burn. Then flip it over a couple of times to make it bake evenly. The dough should be cooked inside but not crunchy. Place the baked tacos on a clean plate and prepare the rest. Serve the tacos with the the toppings you like.
