Servings 4 tortillas
INGREDIENTS
- 200 gr spelt flour
- 150 gr coconut yoghurt
- 3 pinches Himalayan salt + fresh ground pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 pinches dried thyme
- 2-3 tbsp water
INSTRUCTIONS
- Pour 200 gr of spelt flour into a mixing bowl. Add the coconut yoghurt, salt, olive oil, thyme and pepper. Using a wooden spoon, mix it together.
- Add 1 tablespoon of water first and mix it again. Add another tablespoon of water and use your hands to mix well until you have a slightly sticky dough. You may need only 2 Tbsp of water or you add another tablespoon of water if it does not form a nice dough yet. Then, knead the dough for a minute or so into the bowl or on a work surface (you might need to add a bit of flour on the surface to avoid sticking).
- Let rest the dough for 15 to 30 minutes (cover the bowl with a kitchen towel).
- After 15 to 30 minutes, divide the dough into 4 balls.
- Dust a work surface with extra spelt flour and flatten one ball with your hands. Then use a rolling spin and roll it into a tortilla.
- Heat a non-sticky skillet on medium heat. Cook the tortilla for about 45 seconds on each side (or until you see air bubbles forming). Repeat it for the 3 other balls.
- Tip : keep them in the oven (50C fan), while you finish the filling and serve it warm.
