Tortillas with herbs in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make tortillas with herbs? Measure out the necessary ingredients for the dough. Vegetable oil can be taken any without a pronounced smell.

2. Step 2:

   

   Sift the flour into a spacious bowl to clear it of possible impurities and saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the dough will be homogeneous and pliable. You may take more or less flour than I do. Be guided by the consistency of the dough.

3. Step 3:

   

   Add salt to the flour, mix. Make a funnel in the flour, pour in water. Add vegetable oil to make the dough more elastic.

4. Step 4:

   

   Mix everything with a spoon first.

5. Step 5:

   

   Then knead the dough with your hands, adding a little flour if necessary. The dough should be homogeneous, dense, but not too steep. Wrap the dough in a towel or in a clean bag and leave on the table for 30 minutes. During this time, the gluten will swell, and the dough will become softer, pliable and elastic.

6. Step 6:

   

   Any kind of greens and herbs, both wild and cultivated, are suitable for filling. Depending on the types of greens, you can vary the taste of the filling. It is desirable that sorrel is present to balance the taste, and it is better not to use too spicy herbs (for example, basil, mint) so that they do not interrupt the taste of other greens. For the most part, the taste of the filling should be neutral.

7. Step 7:

   

   Wash all the greens, dry them well. Chop each type of greens finely, add hops-sunels (or any spices to taste) and mix everything well. Immediately do not salt the filling, so that the greens do not give juice.

8. Step 8:

   

   Knead the dough again, divide into 6 parts weighing about 60 grams. Roll up the buns.

10. Step 9:

    

    Put 2 portions of greens in a separate bowl, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, salt to taste, mix.

11. Step 10:

    

    Roll out each part of the dough into a very thin cake. At the same time, the table is only lightly powdered with flour.

12. Step 11:

    

    Put the filling in the middle of the rolled dough. There must be a lot of filling, during baking it will decrease in volume.

13. Step 12:

    

    Start pinching the tortilla from one edge to the center, tightly connecting the edges of the dough. At the same time, press the filling slightly at the same time to force the air out of the tortilla.

14. Step 13:

    

    Lightly press the connecting seam.

15. Step 14:

    

    Preheat a suitable-sized frying pan. Put the flatbread in a dry frying pan. Fry it over moderate heat until it has ruddy spots.

16. Step 15:

    

    Turn the tortilla over, fry on the other side until cooked. While the tortilla is frying, form the next one. Prepare all the other tortillas in this way.

17. Step 16:

    

    Tortillas with greens are traditionally served with any fermented milk products. They are good as an alternative to bread for the first and second hot dishes and just for a snack. Bon appetit!
