- 2 Cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 Cup shortening
- Water
Cut shortening into flour and salt. Add cold water to moisten and make a dough. Stir only enough to moisten all the flour. The more you work the tougher it gets just like biscuits. If you add too much water you can lightly knead more flour into each tortilla right before you roll it out. When mixed and smooth roll out into tortilla shape. Fry in a dry fry pan till starting to bubble and turn golden. Flip and cook other side.
