Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Tortilla Chips

    Cut the corn tortillas into triangles. Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the tortilla triangles in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. While still warm, sprinkle with salt.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salsa

    Dice the tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper. Finely chop the cilantro. In a bowl, combine these ingredients with lime juice and salt. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Serve the crispy tortilla chips warm with the fresh salsa on the side.
