Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Chips

    Cut the corn tortillas into triangles and heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chips

    Once the oil is hot, carefully add the tortilla triangles in batches, frying them until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove them and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Salsa

    While the chips are cooling, dice the fresh tomatoes and red onion. Chop the cilantro and jalapeño finely.

  4. 4

    Mix the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
