Tostaditas
DEEP-FRIED CORN CHIPS
To serve 4
Salt
Pour vegetable oil into a deep fryer or large heavy saucepan to a depth of about 3 inches and heat the oil until it reaches a temperature of 375° on a deep-frying thermometer.
Cut the tortillas into 1- or 2-inch pieces with a sharp knife, or tear them apart with your fingers.
Deep-fry the tortilla pieces, 5 or 10 at a time depending on their size, turning them about with a slotted spoon for about a minute, or until they are crisp and brown on all sides. As they are fried, transfer the tostaditas to paper towels to drain.
When all the tostaditas are deep-fried and drained, sprinkle them lightly with salt. Serve the tostaditas as a snack or as an accompaniment to chile con queso or guacamole (Recipe index). Tightly covered, the tostaditas can safely be kept for 2 or 3 weeks.
