Essential ingredients:
- 230-250 g of butter or margarine (at room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 4 teaspoons of sugar
- 2 medium eggs
- 300 g of flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking soda
- 250 ml of fresh milk
- 3 teaspoons of chili (finely chopped)
- 3 teaspoons of onion (finely chopped)
- 3 teaspoons of celery (grated)
- 1 egg (for brushing the tortillas)
- Sesame seeds (for decoration)
- Lemon juice (to activate the baking soda)
Preparation method:
1. Preparing the ingredients: Make sure the butter or margarine is at room temperature for easy incorporation into the dough. Measure all the ingredients in advance to save time.
2. Making the cream: In a blender, add the butter, salt, and sugar. Blend until you get a smooth, creamy paste. This is when the fine texture will give your tortillas a perfect consistency.
3. Adding the eggs: Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The eggs will provide the necessary fluffiness to the dough.
4. Combining the dry ingredients: Stop the blender and transfer the cream to a large bowl. Add the flour, baking soda activated with lemon juice, onion, celery, and chili. All these ingredients will add not only flavor but also a pleasant texture.
5. Mixing: Use a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients well until you get a homogeneous dough. Do not overmix to keep the tortillas airy.
6. Preparing the tray: Grease a tray with oil and place parchment paper at the bottom. The paper will prevent the tortillas from sticking and make cleaning easier.
7. Shaping the tortillas: Use a spoon to scoop portions of dough and place them on the tray, forming small doughnuts. Leave a little space between them as they will expand in the oven.
8. Brushing and decorating: Beat the remaining egg well and brush each tortilla with a thin layer. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch and an appetizing look.
9. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and let the tortillas bake for 25-30 minutes until they become golden and fluffy. You can check if they are done by gently pressing them; if they spring back, they are perfectly baked.
10. Serving: Remove the tortillas from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. They can be accompanied by a yogurt sauce with mint or feta cheese for a delicious contrast.
Variation suggestion: You can experiment with other vegetables, such as dill or bell pepper, or you can add grated cheese to the dough for extra flavor.
These savory tortillas a la Geo are perfect for any occasion and will surely become a favorite among friends and family. Enjoy!
