GRANDMA'S FRIED CORN TORTILLAS

Recipe from, Mom's Pioneer Living Handbook 

Soooo easy to make corn tortillas! One of my favorite food storage recipes for off grid cooking.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups of cold water
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of cornmeal
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg (or use flax seed substitute)  

Heat 8" skillet over medium heat till hot. Beat all ingredients till smooth. 

Pour a quarter of a cup into the skillet (I lightly greased my iron skillet with cooking oil) 

Immediately rotate skillet till batter is thin.

 (This would probably work best with a teflon skillet but with my heavy cast iron, I used a spatula to spread the batter.) 

Flip and cook the other side till done. That's it! 

This is just like cooking pancakes. Best of all, these tortillas are flexible without tearing. 

I can think of so many meal ideas for these corn tortillas.
