Ingredients :
- 150 g corn flour
- 150 g all-purpose or bread flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 Tbsp shortening, butter or lard (45 g)
- 2/3 cup water (180 ml)
Method :
- Mix the flours and salt together in a bowl. Add the shortening/butter/lard in small pieces and crumble it into the flour with your hands until it"s sandy.
- Slowly add the water and mix with hands until the dough comes together enough that you can shape it into a ball without it falling apart.
- Remove the dough ball onto a floured surface and knead with the palm of your hand until it"s soft and smooth, 5-10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into a small ball.
- Return the balls to the bowl and cover with a clean, moist cloth or plastic wrap. Let rest for 30 minutes.
- Heat a flat frying pan or griddle on medium (without oil). When hot, form a ball into a flat, round shape with your fingers (about 4 inches round and 2~3 mm thick).
- Put it into the hot pan and cook on one side until you see little bubbles and the bottom is lightly browned (about 1-2 minutes).
- Flip over and lightly brown the other side for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Don"t over cook or they will get stiff!
- Remove the cooked tortilla onto plate covered with a clean tea towel or cloth, and cover the tortilla with the cloth to keep warm and moist.
- Repeat with the process with the rest of the dough balls until all are cooked. Stuff with your favorite fillings and enjoy!
- If you have leftover tortillas or make extra, let them cool off and then store in a plastic bag. To reheat, wrap in plastic wrap and microwave for 20-30 seconds OR wrap in aluminum foil and heat in a 350°F/180°C oven for 10 minutes.
