๐ **Ingredients** ๐
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted butter
๐ **Instructions** ๐ฌ
1. ๐ฅ In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt until well combined.
2. ๐ Gradually add the warm water to the flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon or your hands to form a shaggy dough.
3. ๐ฅฃ Drizzle the vegetable oil or melted butter over the dough and continue to knead until the dough comes together into a smooth and elastic ball.
4. ๐ฐ๏ธ Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes to relax the gluten.
5. ๐ถ After the resting period, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
6. ๐ฎ On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out each dough ball into a thin, round tortilla, about 6-8 inches in diameter.
7. ๐ณ Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place a tortilla onto the skillet and cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, or until lightly golden and slightly puffed.
8. ๐ฅ Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls, stacking the cooked tortillas on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft.
