Peel and chop mango.
Combine mango with onion, cilantro, scotch bonnet, vinegar, and sugar. Leave at room temperature till ready to serve.
For the tortillas: Combine flour, salt, and oil. Mix till crumbly.
Add warm water until you can gather dough into a ball.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes).
Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Divide dough into 12 equal parts.
Roll each portion into a ball and roll out on a floured surface until it forms an 8 inch circle.
Place flour tortillas on a hot griddle and cook for 30-40 seconds on each side. Tortillas should puff slightly.
