Homemade Tortillas

These are really easy tortillas.

3 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
5 Tbsp oil
3/4 cup warm water

Sift together flour and salt.  Add oil and mix with a fork until crumbly.  Stir in water and knead dough for 5 minutes until well incorporated.  Add water or flour as needed to get a smooth, non-sticky consistency.  Break into moderate sized balls (makes 8-10 depending on size) and let rest for 10 minutes.

Heat a skillet up until water sizzles when dripped onto skillet (do not grease).  Roll each ball into a thin circle.  Cook each side of tortilla for about 1 minute.
