Tortilla Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Frying the Tortilla Chips

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Cut the corn tortillas into wedges. Once the oil is hot, fry the tortilla wedges in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with salt.

  2. 2

    Making Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the avocados and mix in lime juice, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and salt to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Preparing Pico de Gallo

    In a separate bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt to taste. Mix well and set aside.

  4. 4

    Making White Cheddar Cheese Dip

    In a saucepan over low heat, combine white cheddar cheese and heavy cream. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Add garlic powder and salt to taste, and stir well.
