Ingredients
Note that in the video above he only uses half of the recipe, and the use of lard means that the butter does not need to be more. Therefore:
- 250g flour
- 40g butter
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 150g (more or less) of warm water
Procedure
- Mix dry ingredients
- Knead the butter into the flour (by hand or otherwise)
- Use hand mixer with hooks to mix in the water for a firm dough
- Make into small balls for individual tortillas
- Leave dough to rise for 20-30 minutes, covering with damp towel
- Roll out tortillas flat, and cook on dry frying pan or tortilla cooking surface
- 1-2 minutes each side, pressing to increase bubbles
