Οδηγίες

1. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.

2. Add the butter, then pour over the hot water. Stir until a shaggy dough begins to form.

3. Turn the dough out onto a floured counter. Use your hands to knead the dough for 1-2 minutes until it forms a smooth ball.

4. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let rest 10 minutes.

5. Cut the dough into pieces 50 g each. Roll each piece into a ball (they don't need to be perfect). Use a rolling pin or a tortilla press to roll the dough out into an 8 - inch circle.

6. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small drizzle of olive oil, then a tortilla. Cook 30-60 seconds, until little bubbles appear on the surface. Flip and cook another 30 seconds, or until the bottom is slightly golden. Set on a plate and cover with a towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.

7. Serve warm (yum!) or save for later. Keep the tortillas stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
