Ingredients

  • 1 cup (120g) All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 cup (120g) Masa Harina Corn Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 Tablespoons (42g) Ghee Butter
  • 7 ounces Water warm

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, corn flour, baking powder, and salt together.
  • Add the ghee butter before slowly adding the water. Mix everything together until a shaggy dough begins to form.
  • Pour out the crumbly dough onto a hard surface. Work the mixture together until the flour is completely incorporated. The dough will morph into a slightly tacky and workable consistency.
  • Shape the dough into 16 balls that weigh 30 grams each.
  • Let the dough rest for 20 minutes in a ziplock bag.
  • Flatten the dough using a lined tortilla press. If you don't have a tortilla press, you can flatten the dough with your hands or roll it out with a rolling pin.
  • Place the tortilla on a warm griddle or pan. Cook each side until bubbles begin to form, about 45-60 seconds.

Notes

You can use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten the tortillas if you do not have a tortilla press. The result will be the same, just a bit more rough around the edges in terms of visual appeal.
