Chips

Colombian SOFFRITO

Salsa (Hot)

Method

Chips

1

Prepare the Tortillas

Cut each corn tortilla into 6 equal wedges to form chip shapes.

2

Heat the Oil

In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

3

Fry the Chips

Add the tortilla wedges in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

4

Drain the Chips

Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Season with salt to taste.

5

Chop the Vegetables

Finely chop the onion, garlic cloves, bell pepper, and tomato. Roughly chop the cilantro.

6

Sauté the Vegetables

In a medium saucepan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until translucent.

7

Add Remaining Ingredients

Add the bell pepper and tomato to the pan, cooking for another 5-7 minutes. Stir in the cilantro, salt, and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.

Salsa (Hot)

8

Prepare the Ingredients

Remove the husks from tomatillos and rinse them. Chop the jalapeño, removing seeds for less heat if desired.

9

Blend the Salsa

In a blender, combine the tomatillos, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
