Acorn flour provides these tortillas with an exceptional flavour and a delightfully soft texture. To learn how to correctly make acorn flour see my recipe for Acorn and Hazelnut Pap

Ingredients:

210g rice flour or any whole-grain flour
120g acorn flour
50g arrowroot
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
3 tbsp corn oil
120ml lukewarm water or as needed

Method:

Mix all the dry ingredients together then stir-in the corn oil before adding just enough water to make a soft dough that you can press into a very thin sheet between your fingers. If the dough is too sticky to work, add more flour.

Divide the dough into 6 equal-sized balls then using a rolling pin roll the balls into flat, round disks about 2mm thick.

Place a large non-stick pan on high heat and use this to cook each disk on both sides until flecked with brown (less than 1 minute altogether). Don't overcook or the tortillas will get hard.

Use as you would ordinary flour tortillas.
