Salsas

Method

Chips

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Cut each corn tortilla into 6 triangles to create chips.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Chips

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

  4. 4

    Drain and Season

    Remove chips with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. While hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.

Salsas

  1. 5

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Finely chop the tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), and garlic. Rinse and chop the cilantro.

  2. 6

    Mix the Salsa

    In a mixing bowl, combine chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, garlic, and cilantro. Stir in lime juice and salt, adjusting to taste.

  3. 7

    Add Beans and Corn

    Fold in the black beans and corn kernels into the salsa mixture. Mix until evenly combined.
