EASY HOMEMADE FLOUR TORTILLAS 
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup warm water

Combine all the flour, salt, vegetable oil, and water until it forms a dough.

Roll the dough into a big ball and take about an 1 to 2 inch pieces off. Pat the dough flat with your hands or take a rolling pin and roll into circles.

Put the dough on a flat pan on the stove and let the sides cook until there are little brown specks on both sides like you would see on other tortillas.

These were great! I wanted to make huevos rancheros for one and this was perfect to adjust to make enough tortillas for me! I added cumin for extra spice, but a great recipe when you're too lazy to go to the store for tortillas!

I realized I was out of wraps and made half a batch quickly for lunch! So easy! The hardest part was trying to roll them thin but it wasn't too hard with a rolling pin.

This was my first time ever making homemade tortillas, and I am thrilled with the results. It took me til almost the 12th tortilla to figure out how thin to roll the dough and to tell when they were perfectly done, but nevertheless, the entire batch was better than store-bought; these have a LOT more flavor. The only change I made was to use shortening in lieu of the oil, and to allow the dough to rest for 10 minutes or so before I rolled it out. Sirena, thank you for sharing this recipe. I'll be making this again.

Really love these, made it like fifty times. Recommendation though: one should cut the dough into two, roll it out thin then broil them in the oven on greased cookie sheet then wait for them to puff.. when puffed flip them over and put them back in then wait for puff, do the same to the other one and cut them with a pizza cutter.
