Tortilla Chips
Method
Preparation
Cut the Tortillas
Cut each corn tortilla into 6 triangles.
Heat the Oil
In a deep pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Chips
Carefully add the tortilla triangles to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
Drain and Season
Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.
Cool and Serve
Allow to cool slightly before serving with house-made salsa and guacamole.
