DIY flour tortillas...

i have been wanting to have a crack at these flour tortillas for a while now. and they are super easy.
i used the Annabel recipe from her new book.
delish!

what you will need:

3 1/2 cups of flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup neutral oil
1 cup very hot water.

place flour.salt. baking powder in a bowl and add water and hot water.
mix to combine and knead for 3 minutes.
the dough should be soft enough to roll easily.



first you make the dough and leave it to rest for 15 minutes.
i divided it into 16 balls to roll out.


then you roll roll roll your flatbreads...gentle down the stream. or just in your kitchen. which ever you prefer.


mine weren't perfectly round...but i like things a bit rustic.
you cook them on one side for about 1 minute until they get all bubbly.


then...you guessed it you flip and do the other side!


at the same time i was cooking up some thai-pork-balls. 
(excuse my oven...it's a but rustic at the moment too...)


and wrap away! i put out grated carrot and cheese and sliced cucumber with the pork balls. with an avocado and garlic dressing (which was all i had in the fridge but it was good)

now when we have build-your-own meals this always happens...


such a happy wee tortilla.



they were a hit with the critics.
which makes for a happy camper.
