Method
Corn Chips
- 1
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Add Water
Gradually add the water and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients in the bowl. Stir with a spoon until a dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
- 3
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 2-3 minutes until the dough is smooth and pliable.

Roll Out the Dough
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll out each portion into a thin sheet, about 1/16 inch thick. Use a pizza cutter or a knife to cut into triangle shapes.

Fry the Chips
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add a few corn chip triangles to the oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, flipping once.

Drain and Cool
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with additional salt if desired.

Serve
Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dips or salsas!
