  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the top looks set and the underside took a nice golden coloration. Flip the tortilla and continue cooking for about a minute, until it's completely set, then transfer to a plate while you cook the remaining 3 tortillas.
    7. The garnish station
  7. Chop and prep all your ingredients and set them onto a plate.
