Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.

Step 11

Combine the sautéed onions and garlic with the mashed potatoes, mixing well.

Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat.

Step 13

Place a tortilla on the pan and spread approximately 1/4 cup of the potato mixture over one half of the tortilla.

Step 14

Fold the tortilla over the filling to create a half-moon shape.
