Step 1
In a bowl, mix 1 cup masa harina, 1/2 tsp salt, and 3/4 cup warm water until a soft dough forms. If too dry, add water 1 tbsp at a time; dough should be pliable, not sticky.
Step 2
Divide dough into 4 balls. Flatten each into a 4-inch oval. Place 1/4 cup pork rinds in the center, fold dough over, and pinch edges to seal. Flatten gently into an oval shape.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium. Cook tlacoyos for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Step 4
Serve warm with salsa, crema, or crumbled cheese if desired.
