not really anything that substitute that as its corn and not wheat.
Tim,
Apparently it can be bought at either Tesco or Sainsbury - if you have either local to you

I believe you can use cornflour but the masa has more flavour. If you are using the masa harina as a thickening agent then the corn flour should be ok.
Masa harina is available on Amazon.
Corn flour I use for thickening or for making fruit puddings, but I use polenta flour for recipes like Southern Corn Bread. Polenta flour is a bit coarser. Masa Harina is very similar to polenta flour (or polenta meal) and is available more widely than Masa Harina.
