Salsa

Method

Chips

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Cut the corn tortillas into triangles or strips, depending on your preference for chip shape.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a few tortilla pieces to the hot oil and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. 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 hot.

Salsa

  1. 5

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat). Chop the cilantro finely.

  2. 6

    Mix the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño pepper, and cilantro.

  3. 7

    Add Lime and Season

    Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and add salt. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

  4. 8

    Let it Rest

    Allow the salsa to sit for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together before serving.
