Ingredients:
1 package CORN TORTILLAS
*(Use firm, dry ones. I like to use the brand "Celia's" for frying, and they are cheap.)
Oil
Salt
Directions:
1. Place corn tortillas on cutting board. Slice, using pizza cutter.
*Cut in pizza-type wedges or strips, depending on the shape you want.
2. Fill a medium-sized pan 1/3 full of oil. Heat oil on medium-high heat.
*Drop one wedge or strip in to test. When it sizzles, it's ready.
3. Carefully add enough tortilla pieces to cover bottom of pan. Spread around with tongs.
4. Cook for 30 seconds and remove with tongs. (Don't overcook! They cook really fast.)
5. Drain on paper-towel.
6. Sprinkle with salt.
7. Add next batch to pan, repeating steps 3-6 until you've made as many as you want.
It's like cooking fries, only faster!
**To enjoy these as a sweet treat, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon instead of salt.**
Best when warm, but leftovers are good, too. Warning: these are addictive!
(Thanks to Patti for telling me about these once upon a time.)
Make some, and tell me what you think. Do you have a favorite gluten-free tip or recipe? I'd love to hear it!
