INSTRUCTIONS
Cut the tortillas into quarters and then cut each quarter in half to form
eight triangles (see diagram). Alternatively, corn tortillas can be cut
into strips, 4 x 1cm (2 x 1/2 inch), but this is not advisable for wheat
flour tortillas, which break too easily.
Heat the oil to the same temperature as for frying chips, about 200 °C/
400 °F.
Fry the pieces until they are light brown, stirring them occasionally and
making sure all the tortillas brown evenly.
Drain them on absorbent paper and toss with the salt and parmesan and/or
cayenne if required.
Serve cold, alone or with a dip such as Guacamole or Frijoles con Queso.
These chips also make a good garnish for Frijoles Refritos.
