Make Your Own Tortilla Chips
Tortilla Chips
This is an ideal way to use up leftover tortilla wraps, or wraps that have started to dry out.
Ingredients
Tortilla wraps
Olive oil
Salt
Flavouring (e.g., ground garlic, onion powder, ground herbs, etc.)
Method
Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 5/190°C/375°F. Pour the olive oil into a bowl, add the salt and chosen flavourings and stir well. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat both sides of each tortilla wrap with the flavoured oil. Cut each wrap into 8 wedges (a pizza cutter is ideal for this), and place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Serve warm, or transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool. Use kitchen paper to remove excess oil if necessary.
(In the picture above, the dip is made of natural yoghurt, dried parsley, and a little dried tarragon.)
