Tortillas

Via BL. This makes 12-16 easily. They’re amazing chapatis/rotis as well.

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup water - hot
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup oil

Preparation

Mix and knead everything except water first until it’s all crumbly. Then add the water and knead until smooth. Rest for about 20-30 minutes. Make dough balls, rest for another 30-40 minutes. Flatten on a floured surface, and cook them a minute per side. Bubbles are good!

Notes

If you used lard instead of oil and deep-fried them, you’d get what they serve at the legendary Tasty Tacos in Des Moines.
