please answer
what is a thin cornmeal pancake from Mexico, served with a hot filling​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The people of Mexico were among the first to develop agriculture. Around 10,000 years ago early Mesoamerican cultures that later developed into the Mayan civilization grew crops like corn (also called "maize"), beans, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, chayotes and other squash, avocados and papayas. These foods are still the basis of Mexican cuisine, and Mayan foods still eaten today include a thin flatbread made from cornflour called a tortilla, and an easily-carried snack called a tamale in which a meat or vegetable filling is wrapped in a corn husk. Mayans also grew cocoa beans to make chocolate drinks like champurrado that are still popular in Mexico today.

Aztecs and the Spanish invasion

But this was just one of many periods in the history of Mexico. By the 13th century, Mayan culture had declined and most of Mexico was governed by the Aztec civilization. The Aztecs built some of the biggest and most magnificent cities in the world at the time, with their capital city Tenochtitlan being five times the size of London in 1500. The cuisine of the Aztecs was similar to Mayan cuisine, but with ingredients like chilli peppers, salt and honey now used more widely. They used chilli peppers to make a hot and spicy sauce called salsa that's still popular in Mexico today. They poured salsa on fried tortilla strips to make chilaquiles, one of the most famous of all Mesoamerican dishes from the Aztec period.
