50 g T55 wheat flour
50 g cornflour
80 g water
30 ml peanut oil
5 g fine salt
Mix the flours and salt. Boil the water and oil, and pour onto the flour.
Knead to create a smooth, consistent dough.
Cover with a tea towel and leave to rest for 30 mins at room temperature.
Divide the dough into 4 even pieces.
Roll it out into even circles about 2 mm thick.
Cook in your hot pan for about 1 minute on each side. Don't add any oil or fat. The tortillas should be golden on each side.
Once cooked, put them on a plate covered with another plate to stop them drying out.
Serve the tortillas as you please with guacamole, grilled vegetables, beef, chicken, etc.
