Chips Preparation

Heat the oil
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 6
Cut the tortillas
Cut the corn tortillas into triangle shapes (like pizza slices) to create chips.

Fry the chips
Carefully add a handful of tortilla triangles to the hot oil, frying for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Drain and season
Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt immediately while they are still hot.
