How to Make Home-made Flour Tortilla Bowls for Salads? I have tried a couple ways to do this and they have been OK.  Of course, when I worked in industrial kitchens, using a deep fryer and a stainless steel potato masher (but larger) was ideal, but neither of these tools are available in my home kitchen.

So basically, I have a 12-15 inch flour tortilla I want to make into a fried bowl for a nice salad.  Any ideas?
Try brushing the tortilla with oil, and baking it upside down over a steel bowl.
