Ingredients:
| corn tortilla | |
| flour tortilla | |
| oil | |
| salt |
Directions:
Heat about 1" of vegetable oil in a pot. Take those old tortillas that you've been keeping in the back of the refrigerator or use fresh) and using a pair of kitchen shears, cut them into triangles.
Put some paper towels on a baking sheet to drain the tortillas on after they are cooked.
Adding a few at a time, put the tortilla triangles to the hot oil, spreading them out so they are in a single layer. Cook until golden brown, then flip and cook on the other side. This goes quickly so stay by the stove so they don't burn. Use a slotted spoon to remove from the oil. Drain on the paper towel. Salt to taste.
