Tortilla Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cutting the Tortillas

    Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles or desired shapes.

  2. 2

    Heating the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Frying the Chips

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

  4. 4

    Draining the Chips

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  5. 5

    Seasoning

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

  6. 6

    Serving

    Serve the tortilla chips warm with your favorite dip or salsa.
