Frying Flour Tortillas Recipes

Steps:

• Pour 1/4 to 1/2 inch oil in a heavy 10-inch skillet; bring oil to 360 degrees F (182 degrees C) over medium-high heat, about 8 minutes.
• Working in batches, gently arrange tortillas in the hot oil using a slotted spoon; cook, frequently turning tortillas with the slotted spoon, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chips with slotted spoon and place a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat tortilla in a large skillet or directly on the grates of a gas stove until soft and pliable. Place tortilla inside souffle dish, patting bottom down and fluting tortilla up the sides of the dish.
• Air fry until tortilla starts to turn golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Remove tortilla bowl from souffle dish and place upside down in the basket. Air fry until golden brown, an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Mix in the lard with your fingers until the flour resembles cornmeal. Add the water and mix until the dough comes together; place on a lightly floured surface and knead a few minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a well-floured rolling pin to roll a dough ball into a thin, round tortilla. Place into the hot skillet, and cook until bubbly and golden; flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side. Place the cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer; continue rolling and cooking the remaining dough.
