Tortilla dough

Contrary to what you might think, tortillas are quite easy to make if:

– you make the dough as described;

– you roll it out thinly with a rolling pin, making sure both your work surface and the piece of dough are well-floured;

– you carefully move it to the plancha (a flat griddle, which is ideal because even if the tortilla is large, it won’t hang over the edges) or a pan, using the rolling pin as a support;

– you keep an eye on the cooking (stop when it starts to bubble up).

Don’t make the tortillas in advance; keep the rest of the dough in the fridge and prepare them at the last moment. They tend to harden if you don’t eat them right away.
