Add the hot water 1 tsp at a time and continue to mix well with your hands until the dough starts to stick together

* Step 4

Then turn out the dough onto a lightly floured board and kneed for a few minutes until it forms a a smoother consistency shown here

* Step 5

Break the dough into 6 equal pieces and form each first into a ball then squash into a small disc. Let these rest for 30 minutes under a damp cloth

* Step 6

Heat up a pan on medium hight without any oil, then roll out your first tortilla with a rolling pin lightly dusted with flour

* Step 7

When the pan is hot, throw on your first tortilla.
