Salsa Molcajeteada Recipe

Roast Ingredients

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Place the tomatoes, jalapeños, and garlic cloves on the grill/skillet and roast until charred, about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.

Blend the Salsa

Once roasted, let the ingredients cool slightly. In a molcajete or blender, combine the roasted tomatoes, jalapeños, garlic, and chopped red onion. Add cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until desired consistency is reached.

Cut the Tortillas

Cut the corn tortillas into triangle shapes.

Fry the Chips

In a deep skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, fry the tortilla triangles in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
