For the shells

1 bag of Doritos
1–2 tbsp flour
Soft corn tortillas or plain crispy taco shells
Oil or oil spray

Let’s cook

Tap a step when it’s done.

1
Doritos-Crusted Shell (fast, very Doritosy): Crush a bag of Doritos into fine crumbs. Mix crumbs with 1–2 tbsp flour to bind.
2
Lightly brush store-bought soft corn tortilla with oil, press into Doritos crumbs on both sides, and bake at 200°C (400°F) 6–8 min flipping once, or shallow-fry quickly until crisp. Shape into taco shells while warm using oven rack or taco form.
3
Doritos-Powder Dusting (simple, less fall-off): Make or buy plain crispy taco shells. Warm lightly and mist with oil spray, then toss in Doritos powder (pulverized Doritos) so seasoning sticks.
