Salsa Ingredients

Chips Ingredients

Method

Salsa Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Start by washing the fresh tomatoes, jalapeño, and cilantro. Peel the onion and garlic cloves.

  2. 2

    Chop the Ingredients

    Dice the tomatoes and onion into small pieces. Finely chop the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat), garlic, and cilantro.

  3. 3

    Mix the Salsa

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, onion, chopped jalapeño, minced garlic, and cilantro.

  4. 4

    Season the Salsa

    Add lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the vegetable mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

  5. 5

    Chill the Salsa

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Chips Directions

  1. 6

    Cut the Tortillas

    Cut each corn tortilla into 6 equal triangles to create chip shapes.

  2. 7

    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. 8

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a batch of tortilla triangles to the hot oil, frying them for about 2-3 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

  4. 9

    Drain the Chips

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while they are still hot.

  5. 10

    Serve with Salsa

    Once the salsa has chilled, serve it in a bowl alongside the freshly made tortilla chips.
