1

Prepare the Tortillas

Cut each corn tortilla into 6 equal triangles to create chips.

Heat the Oil

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

Fry the Chips

Carefully add a few tortilla triangles to the hot oil, frying them in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Drain and Season

Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain. While still hot, sprinkle with sea salt to taste.
