Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 pieces Corn tortillas
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 3 large Avocados
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 medium Jalapeño pepper
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 small Tomatoes
Instructions
Cut the corn tortillas into 6 triangular wedges each and set them aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium heat until the oil reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the tortilla wedges in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per batch or until crispy and golden brown.
Remove the chips from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt while they are still hot.
To make the guacamole, start by peeling and pitting the avocados. Place the avocado flesh in a mixing bowl and mash with a fork until smooth (leave some chunks if you prefer chunky guacamole).
Add lime juice, finely chopped red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño pepper, minced garlic, salt, and ground cumin to the mashed avocados. Mix until well combined.
Dice the tomato and gently fold it into the guacamole. Adjust salt and lime juice to taste.
Serve the warm Texas chips alongside the freshly made guacamole spread. Enjoy!
