1 Take a plate and place a paper tea towel on top of it. This is where you will put the finished tortillas.
  • 2 Put flour, vegetable oil and salt in a bowl, mix well with your hands.
  • 3 Slowly pour 3/4 cup warm water into the flour for a thick dough. Knead the dough until smooth and smooth.
  • 4 Divide the dough into small balls 4 centimeters in diameter. Lubricate the surface of a wooden cutting board with oil and roll out each ball. You should have circles about the size of your palm.
  • 5 Heat the oil for frying the tortillas in a deep skillet.
  • 6 To keep the oil from splashing, add a little salt to it.
  • 7 Fry the tortillas one at a time, dipping them completely in the oil. Do not turn the cake over until it is swollen.
  • 8 Turn over and fry until golden brown. Place the prepared tortillas on paper towels to absorb the excess oil. You can make Indian naan cakes from the same dough.To do this, the cakes that you rolled out (step 4) must be fried in a dry skillet or in a skillet lightly oiled, but not deep-fried. Fry the naan cakes until dark brown or black spots appear on the surface.
  • 9 Ready.
  • Tips

    • If you want crunchier tortillas, sprinkle with semolina or wheat flour before frying.
    • Puri flatbreads are usually eaten with stewed vegetables. Prepare stewed beans or potatoes and serve with tortillas. Or they can be served with sweet rice porridge.
    • To make the cakes softer, cover the dough with a towel and leave for half an hour, then knead again. (Applies to step 3)
    • Try to fry the tortillas right after they are rolled out. If you leave them for a while, the dough will become too sticky.
