Method

Tortilla Chips

  1. 1

    Cut Tortillas

    Cut each corn tortilla into 6 equal wedges to form chips.

  2. 2

    Heat Oil

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Fry Chips

    Fry the tortilla wedges in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden and crispy. Turn them occasionally to ensure even frying.

  4. 4

    Drain Chips

    Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  5. 5

    Season Chips

    Sprinkle salt over the hot chips while they are still warm.

Salsa

  1. 6

    Prepare Tomatoes

    Chop the tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.

  2. 7

    Add Onion

    Finely dice the onion and add it to the mixing bowl with the tomatoes.

  3. 8

    Add Jalapeño

    Remove the seeds from the jalapeño pepper (if desired for less heat) and finely chop it. Add to the bowl.

  4. 9

    Add Cilantro

    Chop the cilantro finely and add it to the bowl.

  5. 10

    Mix Salsa

    Pour in the lime juice and add salt and black pepper to taste. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
