Mama Lil's Pepper Tortillas

I was setting out to make some bacon tortillas, but I found out I was OUT of bacon, I have no idea how that happened as bacon is a staple in my house.....but I was scouring my fridge and I found a jar of Mama Lil's Pickled Mildly Spicy Peppers with garlic in oil and I had a great idea! Worked out so great I made a second batch less than a week later!

** Sun dried tomato and arugula version at the bottom!!

4 cups all purpose flour (512 grams)

2 tsp sea salt

1/3 cup oil from Mama Lil's Pickled Mildly Spicy Peppers with Garlic in oil

1/2 cup rinsed and WELL drained Mama Lil's Peppers, chopped

1 1/4 cup boiling water

In mixer(or by hand) mix flour and salt. Slowly add the boiling water and oil. Mix until well combined, then add in pepper chunks.

Gather it all into a ball , knead until you have a soft dough that doesn't stick to your hands, cover, allow to rest for 20 minutes

Divide ball into 15 portions (about 60 grams each)

On well floured surface, roll each ball into a circle (or whatever shape you can manage, circles are not my best work!) You want them very thin.

Heat a pan over medium high heat for at least 5 minutes(ungreased!), place first tortilla and allow to cook until it starts to bubble.

Flip and cook for a few minutes more. You can flip a few times until your desired look, I like a few darker spots and a few lighter ones.  

Repeat until you are done with all the balls and enjoy as you would any other delicious tortilla!!

2/22/24.  I switched it up a bit, used the oil from oil packed sundried tomatoes in herbs, rinsed and chilled sun dried tomatoes and added wilted and chopped arugula( after wilting, chopping and squeezing dry it was about 1/3 cup).Same method otherwise!!
