Ingredients

For tortillas

  • 60 g coconut flour
  • 50 g butter
  • 15 g psyllium
  • 230 ml water (boiling)
  • 10 g butter (coconut oil or ghee for frying)
  • salt (to taste)
  • dried garlic (to taste)
  • cumin (to taste)
  • seasonings (by taste)

For stuffing

  • 300 g cooked meat
  • 100 g hard cheese (e.g. mozzarella)
  • salsa (sugar-free)
  • chilli pepper

For serving

  • sour cream (30%)
  • guacamole

Instructions

  • Let’s start with the tortillas. In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients. Use any of your favorite spices: coconut flour is too sweet, so choose those ones, which will distract attention from coconut taste.
  • Add hot water, and knead the dough. Form it in a shape of a thick “sausage” and cut into 4-5 pieces. Carefully roll out each piece. I got perfect circles thanks to the lid from the pan.
  • Fry the tortillas over medium heat in coconut oil or ghee – they will be ready literally in 3-4 minutes.
  • Let’s go to a stuffing. Separate chicken meat from the bones, and put it on half of the tortilla. Top with salsa or finely chopped vegetables and grated cheese.
  • Close the stuffing with the second half and send it to the frying pan for another couple of minutes to warm the filling up and melt the cheese. Serve with sour cream and guacamole.
