Tostadas (/tɒˈstɑːdə/ or /toʊˈstɑːdə/; Spanish: [tosˈtaða], lit. 'toasted') are various dishes in Mexican and Guatemalan cuisine based on toasted tortillas.
They are generally a flat or bowl-shaped tortilla that is deep-fried or toasted, but may also be any dish using a tostada as a base.[1] They can be consumed alone, or used as a base for other foods. Corn tortillas are usually used for tostadas, although tostadas made of wheat or other ingredients are also found.
