Tortillas, or wraps are Mexican bread, and are served with most Mexican meals.
Ingredients
1½ cups plain flour
1 cup maizemeal
1 cup warm water
Extra flour for dusting
Instructions
Sift the maizemeal and flour into a bowl
Make a well in the center and add the warm water
Using a flat bladed knife, mix until combined and the dough comes away cleanly from the side of the bowl
Cover the bowl and rest for 15 minutes
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 3 minutes until smooth
Return the dough to the bowl, cover, and rest for a further 15 minutes
Divide the dough into the required number of portions. Roll out the portions one-by-one until very thin (1mm). Set aside and repeat until all of the portions are rolled
Keep the unrolled portions moist under a damp tea towel or cling wrap during the rolling process
Heat a heavy based pan. Dry-fry the tortillas one at a time for 15 to 20 seconds per side.
Makes 16x20cm / 20x15cm / 40x10cm
