Kefir tortillas in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare and measure the products.

2. Step 2:

   

   Kefir should be at room temperature. If it is cold and there is no time to wait, then just warm it up. Just do it on low heat and with constant stirring, otherwise you will get cottage cheese. Put soda and salt in warm kefir, mix well. The acid contained in kefir will begin to interact with soda, and the mass will bubble up.

3. Step 3:

   

   We begin to introduce flour in portions. The dough for tortillas should be very soft, so the amount of flour should be controlled. I poured flour in three steps. Each time the flour must be sifted - so it will be enriched with oxygen, and the baking will be more magnificent.

4. Step 4:

   

   After each portion of flour, mix it with a spatula into the dough. At first there will be a completely liquid dough, then it will begin to thicken.

5. Step 5:

   

   We must not miss the moment and stop in time, otherwise we risk getting hard cakes. The finished dough is very sticky, it almost flows off the spatula. We stop adding flour and kneading.

6. Step 6:

   

   Spread the dough on a table or board, sprinkled with flour and mix it a little so that you can form a ball.

8. Step 7:

   

   Cover the dough with a bowl and leave to rest for half an hour.

9. Step 8:

   

   After the time has elapsed, we divide the dough into an equal number of parts. I cooked half a portion, I got three parts. Roll out the first piece into a flat cake of the desired size and thickness. I made a thin one. If you like a thicker one, then you can not use a rolling pin, but knead the dough with your fingers.

10. Step 9:

    

    We will fry the tortillas in a dry frying pan without adding oil. We put the frying pan on the fire and heat it. We lay out the billet of the future tortilla, level it.

11. Step 10:

    

    Bake the tortilla under the lid on low heat for about 5 minutes on each side. If your tortillas are thick, then you can increase the time so that they are better baked.

12. Step 11:

    

    When one side is browned, turn the tortilla to the other side. Cover with a lid and fry until browning for another 5 minutes.

13. Step 12:

    

    Fry all the tortillas in the same way. While one is baking, you can quickly roll out the next one. Ready-made tortillas are smeared with butter while they are hot. Bon appetit!
