Guacamole

Tortilla Chips

Method

Guacamole Preparation

1

Prepare the Avocados

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

2

Mash the Avocados

Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocados to your desired consistency (smooth or chunky).

3

Add Lime Juice

Pour in the lime juice and mix well to prevent the avocados from browning.

4

Mix in Other Ingredients

Add the chopped red onion, cilantro, minced jalapeño, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.

5

Taste and Adjust

Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.

Tortilla Chips Preparation

6

Cut Tortillas

Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles (like pizza slices).

7

Heat Oil

In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

8

Fry the Chips

Carefully add the tortilla triangles in batches, frying them until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.

9

Drain Excess Oil

Once golden, remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

10

Season with Salt

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