INSTRUCTIONS
How to fry up corn tortillas to make the tostada shells.

INGREDIENTS
Grapeseed oil, canola, or other high smoke-point cooking oil
12 corn tortillas

2 medium tomatoes, 1-2 chopped peeled and pitted avocados or guacamole
One whole chicken boiled
1 cup of Salsa or 1/2 cup sliced

METHOD
Take a pan and saute the refined beans. If you're using regular beans, wash them and add a little water in your pan along with your regular beans. Once it's cooked, mash them nicely and add salt as per your requirement and set this pan aside.
Now, in another frying pan, add oil.
As the oil heats up, fry your tortillas one by one in low heat till it turns crispy and golden brown. Set the tortillas aside and let it cool down to room temperature.
Take your boiled chicken and shred them to small pieces and add salt to it.
Now, let's do the topping! Take your tortilla and spread a spoonful of mashed beans on it. Add cream and shredded chicken so much as you want. Add cheese, lettuce, avocados, salsa, sliced tomatoes and baby corn. The topping is completely your choice. So you can customize your own tostadas to your taste. Make sure not to overload your tortilla or it will become difficult to eat.
