Homemade Nacho Chips
How to make your own nacho chips from scratch. Great on their own or served as a dipper for salsa.
Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
- In a bowl combine cornmeal, all purpose flour and salt. Whisk well to combine. Add oil and rub in with your fingers until it becomes fully dispersed into the dry ingredients and resembles sand.
- Slowly add enough water to form a soft dough. Once it comes together, knead the dough for 1 minute. Cover and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Heat oil to 350°F/177°C. Divide dough into 3 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 9 inch circle. Do not worry about the edges looking rough. Prick the circle all over with a fork and cut into 12 wedges. Fry the triangles in the hot oil for 1 minute, then flip and fry the other side for an additional 30-45 seconds. Drain on paper towels and serve with your favourite dip.
