Authentic tortillas in my own way, and they’re delicious in every way

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour, 1 tsp salt, 1 cup boiling water and 3 1/2 tbsp avocado oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.

  2. 2

    Transfer to a flat surface and knead for 3-5 minutes, until you have a really smooth dough ball. Cover and allow to rest for 10-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Divide your ball into 10-12 pieces, and roll each piece into a ball. Using a rolling pin, roll each dough ball into a circle, as thin as you can possibly get it.

  4. 4

    Once it’s as thin as you can get it, use your hands to stretch it out even more until you can also see through the dough.

  5. 5

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place your tortilla in the skillet, and wait till it starts to bubble, about 1-2 minutes. Once there are brown spots on the bottom, flip and cook on the other side for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat till all your tortillas are done and enjoy!!
