Kefir tortillas in a dry frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Pour warm water into a glass, heated to 36 degrees. Add half a teaspoon of sugar and a tablespoon of flour, dry yeast and mix the ingredients well so that the mixture becomes homogeneous. We put the container with the liquid in a warm place for 15 minutes. Bubbles or foam should appear on the surface of the mixture, which means that the yeast has been activated.

2. Step 2:

   

   Sift wheat flour into a deep bowl. It is better to sift the flour repeatedly to saturate it with oxygen. Flour may need a little more or less than indicated in the ingredients. Pour kefir, yeast mixture into a bowl with wheat flour, add salt and pour vegetable oil. Mix the ingredients until an elastic and smooth mass is obtained.

3. Step 3:

   

   We continue to knead the dough with our hands until it begins to peel off from the hands. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and leave for half an hour at room temperature.

4. Step 4:

   

   We roll the finished dough on the floured work surface into a sausage, divide it into several small pieces of the same size.

6. Step 5:

   

   We give the dough pieces a rounded shape so that the cakes turn out smooth and beautiful.

7. Step 6:

   

   Roll out each piece of dough into a small thin cake, no more than 0.3 cm thick. We put the frying pan on the fire, warm it up without adding oil.

8. Step 7:

   

   We put the blank of the tortilla in the pan. We make several punctures on it with a fork so that it does not swell during frying. Fry the tortillas for about 5 minutes on one side, turn over and fry on the second until a light blush on medium heat. Tortillas are fried quite quickly, so the main thing is not to overdo them in a frying pan so that they do not burn and become bitter. And each subsequent batch of tortillas will be prepared even faster.

9. Step 8:

   

   We do this with the whole test. Ready-made tortillas immediately, while they are hot, it is better to lubricate with butter so that they are soft. We serve tortillas to the table, with tea, coffee or soup or hot. Bon appetit!
