Tortillas - Flour

2 cups plain flour
1 tbsp butter (or I use nuttelex for those allergy families)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 cup warm water - even hot if you like

Put the flour and the butter in a bowl. Add the oil and water. Depending on your humidity you may need to add more water or not use it all. Once combined, knead for 5 minutes or so. Take the dough out and cover it in cling wrap and leave room temperature for at least 10 minutes. I prefer it if left an hour or so.... Then roll the dough into golf ball sized balls. Leave again for at least 10 minutes. Roll out into circles. Then pop onto a dry hot surface. I use my heavy fry pan that is well seasoned already. Make sure that the pan is good and hot before you start. Put the tortilla in and leave around 1 minute or until you can see it changed colour to a lighter white with some small brown spots, or until you see some bubbles rise. Flip over for another 1-2 minutes. You can happily pop the bubbles if they annoy you .

Put on a plate and cover immediately with a tea towel preferably one that is damp. Its vital for the taste & texture of your tortillas. I usually cook tortillas while calling the family to the table for dinner... so they get a hot tortilla to start with.
