  • Divide the dough into 7 equal pieces about 70g each . Again, set aside for another 20 minutes.
  • Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll into a round about 10" in diameter. Keep the remaining dough covered while you work.
  • In the meantime, heat the comal or skillet about 400F . Then cook the tortilla in the ungreased pan for about 30 seconds on each side. You need to flip the tortilla when you see bubbles on top. Then filp and cook until you see brown spots.
  • Wrap the tortilla in a clean cloth when it comes off the griddle, to keep it pliable. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
