Homemade Tortillas w/Roasted Garlic

Prep Time: Roughly and hour Makes about 30

Ingredients:

3 Cups of flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
4-6 tblspn veggie oil
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 bulb garlic
1 tblspn oil ( to roast garlic)

Peel garlic, in a pan add 1 tblspn of oil, over medium heat cook until soft (when a fork can pierce each clove it's done) remove from heat and let cool. When garlic is cool chop finely.
Mix flour, baking powder and salt, stir....now add oil and water, if garlic is cool to the touch add to the flour mixture. Stir until mixed well. Flour a flat surface (make it somewhat a large area) Put dough on floured surface and Knead until the flour is no longer sticky. Roll the dough( sometimes it's easier to cut dough in half only using one half at a time so it is not taking up so much room ) Use a cup to cut small round from the rolled dough until you can no longer cut rounds, put remain dough aside. Using a rolling pin, roll each round of dough until you get them as thin as possible then lay each one on wax paper. Continue until all the dough is used. I use a flat griddle, on medium heat (DO NOT USE GREASE) Cook each tortilla until they are start to brown, remove from heat. (NOTE: put cooked tortillas in a plastic/sealed bag the steam will keep them soft. I ALSO MADE THESE W/GRILLED ONION....YUMMY.......ENJOY!!!
