Directions
1
In a large bowl, add flour and salt, and whisk together.
2
Add water and oil, and stir with a spoon until it starts to come together.
3
Once it cools slightly, use your hands to continue to mix until a dough has formed and all of the liquid has been absorbed.
4
Transfer the dough onto a work surface and knead it about 10 times until smooth.
5
Divide the dough into 12 equal balls. Flatten each ball slightly, flour both sides, then set aside and cover with a tea towel.
6
Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat.
7
Roll out one piece of dough into a 20cm (8-inch) circle as thinly as you can, then transfer it to the hot pan.
8
Cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles appear, then flip and cook for another minute on the other side.
9
Remove from the pan, place onto a tea towel and cover it while you roll out and cook the remaining tortillas.
10
Allow tortillas to cool, then load with your favourite fillings, or use as a pizza base!
