Homemade Tortilla Chips
Ingredients

- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Step #1: Cut the tortillas into small pieces. We usually cut it into 6 wedges.
Step #2: Choose the best deep-frying pan you have. A few years ago we started using a large cast iron pan and the taste and quality of our food changed radically.
Step #3: Turn on the stove, put oil in a pan, and heat it to 350 F degrees.
Step #4: Add the tortillas, but not too many at once because you risk them sticking to each other.
Step #5: They will need up to 2 minutes of frying on each side until golden brown.
Step #6: Take them out and place them on paper towels.
Step #7: Season with salt while they are still hot.
