A tortilla is a thin, round, flat bread. In Mexico and Central America, they are usually made from corn or wheat flour, cooked on a hot surface, and are soft or slightly chewy. They can be used as a wrap around fillings such as beans, vegetables, or meat.

In Spain, a tortilla usually means a thick omelet made with eggs and potatoes, cooked in a pan.
