1
Prepare the Tortillas
Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles (like a pizza) to create chip shapes.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
3
Fry the Chips
Carefully add a handful of tortilla triangles to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
4
Season the Chips
While the chips are still warm, sprinkle with salt to taste.

5
Chop the Vegetables
Dice the tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper finely. Remove seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat.
6
Mix the Salsa
In a large bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.
7
Add Lime Juice
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture and stir well.
8
Season the Salsa
Add one teaspoon of salt to the salsa mixture and stir to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste.
