Weighing scales

Put the beetroot or spinach in a bowl with 2 tbsp yogurt and blitz with a blender until it is a soft paste - Be careful because the beetroot juice is messy and make sure you squeeze any water out from the spinach first
-
Put 175g of flour in your bowl, add 1 tsp baking powder and 1tsp oil. Add one of the vegetable pastes (beetroot or spinach)
-
Use your fork to mix your ingredients and bring them together into a dough
-
Put your dough on a worktop with a little flour and knead it for a couple of minutes until it’s smooth
-
Divide your dough into four.
-
Put a little flour on the worktop and roll each ball out to a large circle, just like a dinner plate
-
Try and get the dough as thin as possible
-
Put 1 tsp oil in a large frying pan and cook the tortillas over a medium heat for two minutes per side, until they start to bubble
-
You may need to add a bit more oil to the pan as you cook the others
