2 1/2 c flour
1 tsp salt
1/3 c lard
1 c hot water
Mix together flour, salt and lard. Squeezing the lard into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs and if you squeeze a handful, it will stick together loosely. Add water and mix dough together with hand. Just keep mixing and squeezing dough together. It will be super sticky at first but the longer you mix it, it will come together and start coming off the sides of bowl and off your hands.
Portion the dough into 10-12 dough balls. Form them into smooth balls (like you would with rolls) and put in a pan or cookie sheet. Take a small amount of lard (1 tsp or so) and rub it quickly between your hands and then rub it in the top of the dough balls. Cover and let sit for at least 30 min.
Heat skillet or griddle and cook tortillas.
