Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Cut each corn tortilla into 6 wedges to create the chips.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Chips

    In batches, carefully add the tortilla wedges to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Season the Chips

    While the chips are still hot, sprinkle them with salt to taste.
