Hello Folks!!!

Here, I will be showing you how to make an easy, tasty and nutritious tortilla right at home. For the purpose of better understanding, a tortilla is a thin, flat round bread made of corn and wheat flour and cooked on a stove, but don’t confuse yourself between a roti and tortilla. A roti usually is made using tougher dough as compared to a tortilla that uses vegetable shortening in order to create the silky smooth texture.
