Returning from one of the virtual field trips ” at dinner in the world” ,
we reported the tortillas from Mexico ,
food that sometimes substitue  bread, but that is also used  for many recipes.
In honour of Mexico and Italy, which have the same colors in their flags ,
I made the tricolor tortillas  , placing a mixture of paprika and herbs … good … but good !

And now … LIGHT THE FIRES !

INGREDIENTS:

- 100g of white flour

- 100g of corn flour

- 150g of lukewarm water

-1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

-1 / 2 teaspoon salt

For the tortillas red : paprika

For the green tortillas :
I chopped all the herbs I had available , parsley, rosemary , thyme …

WEAR THE APRON , WASH YOUR HANDS , BEGIN !

- Put the oil and salt in warm water ,
sift the flours and add water little by little ,
form a soft dough that does not stick to your hands .
Let stand covered for 15 minutes.

- Divide the dough into three pieces,
in one mix paprika , put the herbs in the other ,
the third such leave white, ah in that I added a bit of red food coloring ( optional ) .
Now divide the dough into 6 balls that are going to roll out between two sheets of baking paper ,
heat a frying pan , when  it’s  hot will cook the tortillas.

Et voila … the tortillas !
