Step 1

Combine all the ingredients in a stand mixer bowl and knead with a dough hook till it comes together in a smooth, non-sticky ball of dough. If it is too sticky, you can add some flour a little at time till it is the right consistency. If you have no stand mixer, panic not. Just mix all the ingredients in with your hands on a clean counter top and knead with your hands. It will just work up the appetite a bit more.

Step 2

Once done, form a neat ball and place in the bowl and cover with a towel for 5 min. This will relax the dough.

Step 3

Portion out the dough at about 30-40g per piece depending on how big you want your tortillas to be. Roll them into balls and place them spaced apart on a flour dusted tray and cover with a cloth and let them rest for 30 min. You can rest it a little longer if you wish. It will just proof a little more. Feel free to dust the dough with a little flour as and when needed for easier handling. We dust it with a fine sieve or u can just use your hands.

Step 4

On a flour dusted table top, use your palms to flatten each ball of dough and then roll it out into a circular shape using either your rolling pin or a pasta roller to ur desired thickness.

Step 5

Heat up 1 or 2 flat based non-stick pans or cast iron pans on medium to medium-low heat. Once pan is heated, add the tortillas. We like to make roll out 2-3 then start cooking them as we roll. Keep an eye on the doughs on the fire. If 2 pans are too stressful to manage, just start with It should usually take about 1 min to so to cook on first side and only about 30 seconds on other side. You may see the dough ballooning (fun!!!!) or it may not.

Step 6

Lay a clean cloth kitchen towel on a plate and create a sort of cosy. Once the tortillas are cooked, I will put them on the towel and cover it up with other end of towel or another towel to keep the tortillas warm and soft.
