Perfect Tortilla wraps
Far better than those rubberised, chemical tasting things you buy in supermarkets.
These turn out really well.
I make falefal avacado salad wraps and fried egg wraps with these.
makes 8 x 60g x 10 inch wraps
INGREDIENTS:
250g white organic bread flour.
170g boiling water.
2.5g or half tsp salt.
5g or 1 x level tsp baking powder.
50g butter melted.
OR MAKE WITH 20% WHOLEMEAL:
200g organic bread flour
50g organic wholemeal flour
METHOD:
In a medium bowl combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. whisk to incorporate.
cut the butter into small pieces and microwave for 20 seconds, or until very soft, stir with a spoon to mix.
boil kettle. weigh 170g boiling water into a jug/cup/container/pot.
Add the softened butter to the boiling water and stir until butter has fully melted.
pour into the flour mix, stir with a fork until there is no dry flour visible, then use a spatula to fold the mix into a rough dough.
Cover with cling film and rest for 30 minutes.
Tip/scrape the warm dough onto the floured worktop and knead for 1-2 minutes.
Turns into a nice soft dough. A bench scraper helps to scrape the worktop if the dough sticks.
Divide/weigh the dough into 8 x 60g pieces. A perfect size for my frying pan.
Shape into balls.
Place the dough balls on a plate or tray and cover with film.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour if you want to cook them straight away. chilling them firms up the dough and makes them easier to roll out.
I keep them in the fridge until I use them, sometimes for 3-4 days.
Once chilled, roll the dough balls out using a rolling pin with lots of flour.
you can roll these really thin without the dough tearing. Lots of flour is key.
Cook in a preheated pan on high heat for about 2 minutes on each side. dont over cook.
I sometimes batch fry them, wait for them to cool, put them in a zip-lok bag and freeze them.
30 seconds in the microwave to unfreeze.

These look great! Do you think all purpose flour could be used? Or is the bread flour required?
Hello PlantJam
Thank you.
I am assuming that the all purpose flour you mention is the American all purpose flour.
As far as I know American all purpose flour has a high protein content and is generally used for bread. Though dont quote me on that.
I am sure this recipe will be OK with all purpose flour.
It is flat bread after all.
I only use organic bread flour because I buy 16Kg bags of the stuff, which is cheaper than buying from the local supermarket.
