Fat Free Tortillas Food

FAT FREE TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir with a fork to combine. Slowly add the warm water while stirring until a crumbly dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough until smooth. Divide the dough into equal sized pieces and roll each into a smooth ball. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Preheat an ungreased griddle or skillet to 375 degrees F. Roll each dough ball out into a very thin circle. Place on the griddle and cook until lightly browned and blistered. Flip the tortilla over and cook until lightly browned and blistered. Immediately remove the tortilla from the griddle and cover with a dish towel while you cook the remaining dough. Serve warm or store in an airtight container. These can be frozen by placing waxed paper between each tortilla and placing in a ziptop plastic bag. Press out as much air as possible.

FAT FREE FLOUR TORTILLA

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well. Add fat-free mayonnaise and use pastry blender (or fork) and blend until flour mixture appears to be coarse throughout.
• Add hot water and stir well. Knead in extra flour. Cover and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
• Set iron griddle over medium to medium-high heat. Tear off a piece of dough, roll into a ball (approximately 2 1/2-inches).
• On well-floured board, roll dough out into a circular flat form as thin as possible (less than 1/8-inch thickness) approximately 6 inches in diameter. Add more flour if dough is sticky.
• Place tortilla on heated griddle and allow it to bubble slightly. Heat for approximately 1-2 minutes.
• Flip tortilla and brown other side approximately 1 minute longer. If tortilla has browned in variable spots and does not have a dough-like texture, then it is done.

TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Combine the flour, vegetable oil and salt in a bowl. Pour over 150ml warm water and knead to bring the mixture together. Remove from the bowl and knead on a lightly floured work surface for around 5 mins until you make a soft, smooth ball of dough. Cover with a clean tea towel and rest for at least 15 mins before rolling out.
• Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces (about 75g each). Roll out each ball of dough as thinly as possible on a floured work surface. They should make rounds about 20 cm wide, 2mm thick.
• Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the tortillas for 1-2 mins on each side until golden brown and toasted. Wrap them in foil and cover in a tea towel to keep warm, while you cook the rest. Keeps for two days well wrapped, or cool, wrap and freeze for up to three months.
