Making Tortillas

As many of you know we can get almost anything in Mongolia nowadays.  One of the things that are not imported are tortillas.  Last year Jennifer started making tortillas on her own.  They are relatively cheap and easy, just time consuming if you make many.  One of our teammates loves to cook just like Jennifer, so they got together for a tortilla making afternoon.  Here are some pictures of Pam and Jennifer making tortillas and their creativity with adding different herbs.

Yummy!  Tortillas cooking in the skillets!  Pam made one a heart shape!

Pam is still rolling out dough!

The finished product of 3 batches of tortillas.  The cooks made 141 tortillas total.  One batch was plain (regular) tortillas, the second batch was onion and herb (oregano and basil) tortillas, and the third batch was herb (basil, Emril's orginal essence, and garlic).  One of Joshua's favorite snacks is tortilla chips.  The herb tortillas make for different flavored chips!  Yum! Yum!!!
