Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

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

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a handful of tortilla wedges to the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Immediately sprinkle with salt and any additional seasonings while still hot.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite salsa or dip!
