1
Prepare the Corn Tortillas
Cut the corn tortillas into triangles or desired chip shape.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
3
Fry the Chips
Carefully add a few tortilla triangles to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
4
Drain and Season
Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still warm.

5
Prepare the Ingredients
Chop the tomatoes, onion, and jalapeño pepper into small pieces. Remove seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat.
6
Mix the Salsa
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro. Add lime juice and salt, then mix well.
7
Taste and Adjust
Taste the salsa and adjust salt or lime juice according to your preference.
8
Chill and Serve
Let the salsa sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with the freshly made chips.
