I had varying degrees of success getting my shells to hold their shape. Draping over a large mug was probably my preferred method.
Ingredients
  • 1 Cup of flour
  • ½ cup of instant polenta
  • ¼ tsp of salt
  • 1½ cups of water
  • 1 egg
Instructions
  1. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly together in a bowl.
  2. Heat a large non stick, heavy based pan. Add enough olive oil to cover the base.
  3. Use a soup label to drop a large spoonful into the base of the pan, quickly spreading the batter in a circular motion, working from the inside out until it is nice and thin.
  4. Cook each side for about one minute. The shells are not supposed to brown, although they should definitely cook all the way through.
  5. Remove the shell from the pan and then mould into shape by draping them over a cake rack, or placing over the top of a mug. You want something that will help them dry into the desired "taco shell" shape.
  6. You can use them as soon as they have cooled.
