Noun
gordita (plural gorditas)
- A thick tortilla as made in Mexico, frequently stuffed and made of corn flour.
- 2004, Mark Busby, The Southwest, →ISBN, page 253
- Another element in this argument is how a "real" gordita is fixed. Is a gordita the tortilla itself, or is that just a shell, requiring toppings to make it a gordita? ... On the other hand, Taco Bell's gordita is a piece of wheat flatbread folded like a taco and stuffed, which bears little resemblence to the "real" thing, which would warrant its classification as appropriation, not a variation.
- 2012, Marilyn Tausend, La Cocina Mexicana: Many Cultures, One Cuisine, →ISBN, page 68
- The term gordita means “little fat tortilla” and all gorditas are made from masa, but what you are served when you order a gordita will vary depending on where you are in Mexico.
