🥗Healthier: olive oil

Olive oil is healthier due to its unsaturated fats, while vegetable shortening is often cheaper.

In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder.

Add lard and mix until crumbly.

Gradually add water, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth.

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape into balls.

Roll each ball into a thin circle using a rolling pin.

Cook each tortilla on a hot skillet for about 1 minute per side until lightly browned.

Keep cooked tortillas warm in a cloth until serving.
