|
1.
|
|
|
We will make 8 tortillas which is more than enough for two persons or even 4.
Put 250g of flour into a bowl.
|
|
|
2.
|
|
|
Add 100g of corn flour.
|
|
|
3.
|
|
|
Add a pinch or two of powdered yeast.
|
|
|
4.
|
|
|
Add 80g of butter.
The butter should be put to a room temperature otherwise it will be a bit difficult to knead the dough.
|
|
|
5.
|
|
|
Start kneading with your hands and add warm water gradually until you get a sticky tortilla dough. Not to sticky may I add.
|
|
|
6.
|
|
|
While kneading add a pinch or two of salt.
|
|
|
7.
|
|
|
When the dough is just right, cover it with a cloths and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
|
|
|
8.
|
|
|
After 30 minutes, divide the dough to 8 even pieces.
Pour some flour over the surface where you will roll the dough.
|
|
|
9.
|
|
|
Put a bit of flour over the roller as well, roll over the dough to end up with a flat tortilla like mine (see picture).
|
|
|
10.
|
|
|
Put the tortilla into the frying pan with the temperature set to 7/10.
If you don't have a frying pan with a non-stick cooking surface then add a bit of oil and heat it before you put the tortilla in.
|
|
|
11.
|
|
|
After a good minute turn the tortilla over.
You can help yourself with a spatula.
