3. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll into balls. On a lightly floured surface roll and stretch each round into a circle 35cm across.
4. Cook in a large, dry frying pan over medium-high heat until brown spots begin to appear on the surface, then turn and brown the other side. Keep tortillas covered with a clean, dry cloth until ready to serve.
