Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

Vegetable oil for frying
Twelve 6-inch corn tortillas (preferably white)
Fine salt

Steps:

  • Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place a deep-frying thermometer in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, stack the tortillas, and cut the pile into sixths to make chips.
  • Raise the heat to high. Working in batches, fry the chips, turning them with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined pan to drain. (Return the oil to the proper temperature between batches.) Cool and season with salt. Serve.
