Equipment

  • - Blender or food processor
  • - Rolling pin
  • - Large mixing bowl
  • - Skillet or griddle
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • - 2 cups fresh spinach leaves loosely packed
  • - 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for rolling
  • - 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • - 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • - 1/2 cup warm water

Instructions
 

  • **Blend the spinach**
  • Add the spinach and warm water to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, creating a vibrant green puree.
  • **Mix the dough**
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the spinach puree and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • **Knead the dough**
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2–3 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  • **Divide and roll**
  • Divide the dough into 8–10 equal portions and roll each into a ball. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin circle, about 8 inches in diameter.
  • **Cook the tortillas**
  • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place a tortilla on the hot skillet and cook for 30–40 seconds, or until bubbles form and light brown spots appear. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds on the other side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  • **Serve**
  • Stack the cooked tortillas on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm.
