Gluten Free Tortillas, Plus 5 ways to Use them.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Live Free Gluten Free Wholemeal Flour
  • ¾ cup warm water
  • 2 teaspoons

Method

  1. Place LFGF wholemeal flour in a bowl; add warm water + oil.
  2. Mix using a knife; when the dough starts to come together use your hands (floured with Gluten Free flour) to shape the dough into a ball. If the dough is too wet, add a little more LFGF Wholemeal flour, a little at a time until it is the right consistency.
  3. Divide the ball of dough into 4 or 5 pieces and roll each piece into a ball on a floured surface.
  4. Roll out until each piece very thin, just so you can still pick it up. I use my biggest saucepan lid to cut a neat shape.
  5. Pack in plastic wrap as you roll them, to stop them drying out, these can be stored in a container till need. (Will store up to a week in the fridge.)

Use 1: Using It as a Wrap

  1. Heat a heavy-based frying pan over a medium.
  2. Place a Tortilla / wrap in the pan & cook for 1 minute until the tortilla puffs up and slightly browns.
  3. Turn over & cook until slightly brown. Really good for camping make same and take them raw, cook at the camp! (Really good for school lunches)
  4. Serve with the filling of your choice. Yum!

Use 2: Pizza Base

  1. Place a tortilla/ wrap in hot frying pan & cook for 2 min or until stats to bubble & looks nearly cooked.
  2. Turn over cook just until seal the tortilla, take of the heat.
  3. Top with your favourite topping(s).
  4. Place in a hot oven till cooked. Yum!

Use 3: Pastry

  • Use a tortilla as pastry, even this thin it will hold a pie together. Use leftovers from the fridge. Or cupboard, why not even a bacon & eggs. Yum!

Use 4: Pasta

  • Roll up tortilla and slice it into fettuccine, use your favourite pasta sauce, (they are really good as lasagne sheets too!) Yum!

Use 5: Water Crackers

  • At the end of the week, if you haven’t used all the tortillas / wraps, cut them into shapes (I use a cookie cutter).
  • Place on a biscuit baking tray line with baking paper.
  • Spray each side with oil (any oil will do).
  • Place in a preheated, hot oven till they fill hard & brown.
  • Store in an air-tight container.
