Tortilla Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix well until evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the water and vegetable oil. Stir with a fork until the mixture comes together.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Rest the Dough

    Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes to relax the gluten.

  5. 5

    Divide and Roll Out

    After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a circle about 1/8 inch thick.

  6. 6

    Cook the Tortilla

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until lightly browned and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the cooked tortilla from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining portions and serve as desired.
