Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups rice flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine the rice flour and salt thoroughly to ensure even seasoning.
- Add liquids: Pour in the warm water and olive oil slowly into the flour mixture.
- Knead the dough: Using your hands, knead the mixture until it forms a smooth and pliable dough, adding a little more water if necessary.
- Divide dough: Break the dough into small equal-sized balls to prepare for shaping.
- Shape tortillas: Flatten each dough ball into thin, round tortillas using your hands or a rolling pin.
- Cook tortillas: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook each tortilla for 1-2 minutes per side until they develop light golden spots and are cooked through.
Notes
- Use warm water to help the dough bind better.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more rice flour.
- Cook tortillas on a dry skillet; no oil is necessary to avoid frying.
- Serve immediately or keep warm wrapped in a clean towel to preserve softness.
- Rice tortillas are naturally gluten-free, making them a great option for those with gluten sensitivities.
