Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup tapioca starch or arrowroot starch (60g)
- 1/2 cup chickpea flour (50g)
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk, canned (240ml)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the tapioca starch (or arrowroot starch) and chickpea flour thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
- Add Coconut Milk: Gradually pour in the unsweetened coconut milk while stirring continuously until a smooth, thick batter forms without lumps.
- Rest the Batter: Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flours to absorb the liquid fully, resulting in a better dough texture.
- Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it if necessary to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Tortillas: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan, spreading it lightly into a round shape with the back of a spoon or spatula. Cook until the edges start to lift and golden brown spots appear on the bottom, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Flip and Cook Other Side: Carefully flip the tortilla using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until cooked through and slightly golden.
- Repeat: Continue with the remaining batter, stacking cooked tortillas on a plate. Keep them warm by covering with a clean towel until ready to serve.
Notes
- Use tapioca starch for a chewier texture or arrowroot starch for a lighter one.
- Ensure the skillet is hot enough before pouring the batter to avoid sticking.
- These tortillas are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container and reheated on a skillet.
- Adjust thickness by adding a little more coconut milk if the batter is too thick to spread.
- For savory or sweet variations, consider adding spices or herbs to the batter before cooking.
