Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth, then cover and let it rest for at least 30 minutes. Divide the dough into small balls and roll each ball out into a thin, flat circle. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with oil. Cook each tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until golden brown and bubbles form. Keep the tortillas warm in a covered dish until ready to serve.

One way to keep minced ginger fresh is by storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Another way is to freeze it in small portions using an ice cube tray and then transferring the frozen cubes into a freezer-safe bag. This way, you can use the required amount of ginger without thawing the entire batch and it stays fresh for a longer period. Adding a teaspoon of oil (such as sesame or vegetable oil) to the minced ginger can also help preserve its flavor and aroma.
