Makes 30 large tortillas
Ingredients
900g flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
200g butter
2 cups water (lukewarm)
Method
1. Sift flour, salt and sugar into bowl.
2. Rub butter into flour mixture until it resembles bread crumbs.
3. Gradually add water and mix into soft dough. The dough should not be too sticky or too dry.
4. Divide into small or large balls depending on size tortillas you want.
5. Place onto lightly greased surface and cover with damp cloth.
6. Rest for 30 minutes. Roll into disks of 3mm thick.
7. Cook each tortilla in very hot griddle pan (like crepe pan) for 30 seconds on each side. If it puffs up, press it down with a spatula.
To wrap, place the filling in the middle of the round tortilla. Fold the bottom up to cover the filling but not all the way to the top, then fold the sides in. At this stage you can add more of the filling if needed.
