Equipment

  • cast iron griddle
  • Tortilla Press

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups cassava flour
  • 1/2 tsp pink salt
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp konjac root powder
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil
  • 3/4 cup warm water depending on your flour and humidity. give or take a tbsp

Instructions
 

  • Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Add oil and warm water and mix with a fork until it is clumpy, then squeeze into a ball.
  • I use an ice cream scoop to size the balls for the tortilla press.
  • Press (or roll out) between two sheets of unbleached parchment paper in the tortilla press. Sometimes I can carry this off without the parhment by carefully removing the tortilla from the press with a large metal spatula.
  • Cook on hot cast iron grill for 1-2 minutes per side.
  • Stuff with cheese and whatever you like.

Notes

This is the same recipe I use for paleo gozleme.  I roll them out between parchment paper though to get a larger size for folding into square parcels.
