Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 0.75 cup warm water
- 0.5 cup additional vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Add 0.25 cup of vegetable oil to the dry mixture. Using your fingers, work the oil into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly pour the warm water into the mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then cover them with a clean kitchen towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
After resting, flatten each ball into a disk and roll each disk into a thin circle, approximately 8 inches in diameter, using a floured rolling pin.
Heat 0.5 cup of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Fry each tortilla individually in the hot oil, cooking for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to flip the tortillas and ensure an even fry.
Transfer the fried tortillas to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately while they are crispy. Enjoy these vegan fried flour tortillas as a delightful snack, or use them as a base for your favorite toppings.
