The first step that we are going to do is make a masa from the rice.Cook 1 kg of brown rice with 6 cups of water in a pressure cooker at high for 50 mintues. (see brown rice recipe for more details.) With your brown rice ready, add in a third of a cup of flax and pistachios to the rice and mix them all together. The rice tends to be super sticky sometimes so a useful tip is get a bowl water, and then just dip your fingers so that when you touch it won’t be that sticky.
After mixing, it’s now time to put all of them into the grinder. This can also be done in a food processor.
Now you have your masa!
Next step is we are going to make the ball or dough flat. To do this, Place a plastic bag or wrap on the surface or the tortilla maker or on your countertop. Place the ball onto a tortilla press or onto over the plastic surface. Then put the masa on top of it. You’ll also need to place a plastic bag or wrap on top of the masa ball. Grab a pan (if you are not using a tortilla press) and then, squish the masa to make a flat-bread. Once you have your masa squished, on the desired thinness, then set aside or make it round. To make it round. you can cut it with a round cookie cutter and remove excess dough or massa to make an arepa.
Now it’s ready for the oven! Grab a pan and a spray a little bit olive oil in it and bake @350°F until crispy, 5 minutes approx.
Cook or Freeze.
