Corn Tortilla's

Corn Tortilla's

 

 

Ingredients:

1 Cup flour

1/2 Cup Cornmeal*

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 small egg, beaten

1 1/2 Cups cold water

 

In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients together.  Add the egg and water, mixing well.  Warm a lightly oiled frying pan.  Place a couple of Tablespoons of batter and spread it in a circle with a spoon.  If you teach your houseworker to do this, she will be really good at pouring the batter because it is just like pouring injera batter.  Cook on low heat, turn and cook for another 30 seconds or so.  Set on a plate to cool.  Makes 12 corn tortillas.

 

* Cornmeal - I buy the dried field corn they sell.  I have my guard take it

to the mill and have it ground.
