One thing you need to keep in mind as student, is that the wraps can get hard if you don't store it in right way and it can get spoilt. So make it in small quantity, cook and eat the same.
If you have a freezer, you can prepare burritos with a few canned/frozen vegetables and bag them in the freezer, then you can just microwave them and put them in the pan for a few seconds with butter just to make it crispy
@@satibel ohh sorry . I was talking about the dough. Like i make chapattis. (Whole wheat dough, just with wheat flour and water). If you drop in fridge, the exterior gets bit hard. and you need to keep it out for some time for dough to become bit softer. Again here like it's matter of time as student.
@@rajanlad yeah, I was just saying it's a good way to keep them, if you're making one you might as well make 10 and keep them for later. If you're renting with multiple people and have the space, getting a chest freezer is a pretty good investment, make food on the weekend, and have food for the week. But you can batch one new thing every weekend, so you have like 100 muffin fritatas, 30 burritos etc... for the next 6 months it's faster and way cheaper than ordering.
For those wondering about measurements, I make what looks like the same recipe and I use 3 cups of flour, 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder, 1 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/4 cup of olive oil and 1 cup of warm water. Makes a very nice dough which you can, if you let it rest for about an hour after kneading, roll very flat without any additional flour.
Just want to confirm, the water doesn't have to be boiled or anything, correct? Also, do we HAVE to let the dough sit? It doesn't look like they did that in the video, but I could be wrong.
Time is money to make dough it probably takes about an hour and a half to 2 hours to make them and do the dishes and if you make minimum wage in Washington state those 2 hours are worth 26 dollars. You can probably only get 10 or so in that time. I'd never spend 26 USD on tortillas and no one ever should. It's not like you can buy a cup of flour you have to buy the whole thing for probably double the price of a bag of tortillas and plus the store bought tortillas probably taste better anyway. This guy referred to dough as "gluten" that's your sign right there. This guy thinks he's a scientist and financial advisor
@@dochallah1721 26 dollars seems a small price to pay to avoid eating store bought bread that could use cancer causing additives. Maybe work out the cost effectiveness of staying alive in your calculations there "Doc"
@@dochallah1721 Bro you silly the 10 cents he is talking about is per portion, lots of people like me enjoy cooking and baking, people have enough time because they go to parties and play video games and all that, and gluten is a component in flour when water is added. But if your comment was satire I guess I’m the dumb one
@@serptimis1552 bread not only makes you fat but causes cancer too lol. People are dumb af. You have no idea what additives cause cancer at all. Most additives that are dangerous are things like sodium nitrate that cause heart disease not cancer. I do know that slaving away to save pennies is a much quicker way to death (via heart disease, the biggest killer in the world) than saving myself hours a day by buying store bought tortillas that can actually keep for weeks. You have to be absolutely insane not to see my point and insane to think store bought tortillas are gonna kill you faster than stress and over work.
I straight up need the recipe and ingredient measurements for this,please! I love soft tacos and burritos, but the tortillas for making them are getting so expensive where I live. 😂
4 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons(tsp) of baking powder, 1 tsp of salt, 2 tablespoons (ts) of Manteca/lard and 1 1/2 cups of water. Easier to use a tortilla press than a rolling pin. No need to let it rest just mix and make into balls and use a tortilla press if available then coat both sides of tortilla with a small bit of flour and cook.
@samsoomproductionsBySomoaldeen manteca helps give a lot of flavor compared to olive oil and I found it comes out horrible with olive oil. I'm Hispanic so
@@Arcapilgo it was a pun if you didnt understand you should have shut up anf walked away your comment foesnt really affect him and no one really cares so go cry kid
Looks amazing. Bring him on again. Request for cooking basics for exhausted parents needing a quickass dinner. Because "what's for dinner?" makes me die inside. 😭
For the laziest easiest meal ever google dutch pancakes. 300gr flower 500ml milk 2 eggs (can add some salt cinnamon and sugar but is optional) mix well and pour the batter in a hot frying pan till whole pan is covered but don’t make it too much. Flip when firm the bottom should be golden brown and bake for a minute or 2 flip again to check other side and there you go. Add sirup or fine sugar. Or any topping for that matter. Anything good on bread is good on this. Can pour the batter over bacon, apples bananas whatever. after you flip you can add cheese and use a lid. This will make you 6-8 pancakes. Its my go to when I’m too tired to cook. Its also less cleanup than cooking a meal
As mexican, it looks so good; but if you want much flavor, change the olive oil for "manteca de puerco" or in english pork fat, it increases the flavor so much! Edit: OMG, I've never expected so many likes and reactions. A few things to say; as I say previously, I'm Mexican and it was only a suggestion to do this, but it's not required. You can add any kind of fat that you want from bacon grease, to vegetal grease, even Butter. And yes it's cheap, one bottle of pork fat costs around 2/3 dlls and it last for months, you can use it to coock any kind of meals. But, as I say; it's not required. Thank you so much for the support, greetings to all of you.
@@OTB2002 If you don't have this ingredient and somehow you are not able to buy it yourself, then ask your friend/mother/sister to buy it for you! By the way, are you sure you are a student?
@@erikamuller4934 Bro, are you people stupid? He does these videos because he uses stuff that most people will have in their houses, most Western university students won't have any of those ingredients.
For those who want to save some time from having to give each tortilla the form, there a Mexican product called tortilla press (prensa para tortillas) that you just put the dough, squeezed with the lever and you’ll immediately will have the perfect shape for the tortilla as well as that you can control how much you squeeze so that it can be thin or fluffy, it’s just to save some time or if you want to do a bunch of tortillas, we use it mostly for when we have many guest.
Tortillas de harina originated in the northern parts of Mexico where as corn tortillas originated in other parts of Mexico. Over all tortillas come from all over Mexico.
Negative, Mexican moms would say " your making it wrong " Masa Harina and water are the only 2 ingredients needed. Or did you actually think wheat flour tortillas were a " Mexican thing" " Ignorant self righteous person did not know what I typo was so I corrected it so their panties can unbunch "
@@billweirdo9657 First, its Masa Harina. Second, Norther Mexico has been using flour tortillas since at least the early 1800s if not earlier than that. Its because the climate there is better for wheat than maize. Flour tortillas come from the California region that belonged to Mexico before it was taken by the USA. They are Mexican, so please actually take a second to look into shit before you talk about it.
@@pa7764 well for clarity I make these like almost daily so I might know better and there is a thing called common sense. I wrote about amount not the ingredients mister
This looks like how my mom makes them. She uses manteca, but for a vegetarian substitute, she uses crisco instead. It comes out really good either way because they don’t last long in my household 😂
Important tip: Keep your flours, sugars, rice, noodles etc in closable plastic boxes or Tupperware. As students we often live in old flats or student dorms and there live just as many bugs😢 once they are there it's hard to get rid of them. For this reason I am still scared of buying flour😅
These are similar to the chapatis we made at home for dinner,lunch etc. But we make a fresh batch each time, with wheat flour. They are so refreshing and light.
I just want to say I just bought your book and it is amazing! I made dinner for my whole family and it’s been a while since we had a home cooked meal and it tasted amazing! Thank you for being so inspiring and i really love your content and cooking advice!! 😊😊
@prithvi gembali ... Nahi bhai, Tortilla maida ka nahi corn 🌽 flour ka banta hai but haan i agree that apna roti/chapati is way more healthy kyuki woh whole wheat se aata banta hai 😊
Its honestly better for students to just buy them. The amount of time required to make them from scratch isn't really worth it imo unless you make a big batch of them each time. This is coming from a bread baker lol
you can use leftover mash potato, add a little milk till it resembles pancake batter, then add flour to make a dough. salt as needed. Roll out flat into circles like this, any thickness, from flat to 1/4". Use a little butter on the pan and fry the same way. Keep in airtight container in fridge, and eat cold with butter, or re-fry in butter to any crispness you like. Delicious. Can be cut into triangles pizza style, fried very crisp, and used as chips w a dip. You have made Irish Potato bread! You can make a lot at a time. Lasts for a long time if kept in fridge.
In India we call it roti/pulka/chapati We usually eat it with sahi paneer/chole bhature/allo kurma(potato curry) And oh god it's the most delicious meal you will ever have with a side of lassi🤤🤤 Edit:guys it's been two weeks I posted this comment to only realise It's an ongoing war Edit2: bruh my comment blew up😅😅
I used to help my mom to make Indian version of these(rotis) and she would reject them if they are not round enough....😂 Edit: I have no idea how I started a war in my comment section..(╥﹏╥)
I used to help my grandma make chapati, basically if you removed the baking soda and oil- I absolutely hated the feeling of the original dough because it would stick to your fingers and get in the creases of your hands. She used to let me carve shapes into my chapati, and make different shaped chapati. I always made a heart or two to go to my grandma and my dad, don't know why I never gave any to my mom. It's a comforting memory.
