Fate Tortillas
- RECIPE MAKES: 4 tortillas each providing no protein
- PREP TIME: 10 minutes
- COOK TIME: 10 minutes
Stir Low Protein Mix, salt, baking powder, oil and water in a bowl with a metal spoon until mixture is smooth and well blended. Leave to rest for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a small non-stick fry pan over a medium heat. Dust the work surface with the extra Low Protein Mix..
Take 1 heaped Tbs of the mixture and place onto the dusted surface. Roll and flatten with hands until a circle (approximately the size of a saucer) is formed; approximately 4mm thick. Using a spatula lift dough from bench and place into pan.
Cook for 40 seconds; the tortilla will have slightly “bubbled”. Flip over and cook on the other side for a further 40 seconds. Repeat with remaining mixture.
Serving suggestions:
Pizza
Use 1 Fate tortilla as the base for a simple, tasty low protein pizza – see “Pizza” recipe in this section.
Vegetable Wraps
Try spreading 1 Fate tortilla with a little pesto (you may want to check with your dietitian) topped with vegetables of choice; such as BBQ eggplant and capsicum, roasted pumpkin and zucchini – simply wrap and enjoy.
For a more traditional wrap try filling a Fate tortilla with a little grated beetroot and carrot, shredded lettuce, chopped tomato and bean shoots. If you want to add a little protein; a small amount of ricotta cheese or a dip; such as tzatziki tastes really good.
Top tip:
Fate tortillas freeze well. Allow them to cool, then place into individual freezer bags or suitable containers.
