Budget 101






List of Ingredients



• 3/4 cup cornmeal
  
• 1 1/4 cup flour
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 2 Tbsps shortening
  
• 1 cup boiling water
  






Instructions



1. Blend dry ingredients together, cut in shortening. Slowly pour boiling water into the dry ingredients. Continue stirring until mix forms a dough (rather than lumps). Let set for 15 minutes.
   
2. Divide the dough into 10 lumps about the size of a golf ball.
   
3. Roll each ball out very thinly between sheets of parchment paper. Remove the top sheet of paper. Add tortilla to hot skillet. After the tortilla cooks for a few seconds, slip off the remaining sheet of parchment paper.
   
4. When the underside of the tortilla is dry with a few brown spots, turn it and cook the other side.
