    Title: Tortilla Chips
    Categories: Snacks
    Yield: 48 Chips

    12 sm Tortillas; raw
    Vegetable oil

    Take a dozen small tortillas, either home-made, frozen, or
    store-bought and cut them into quarters.

    Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet until it is hot
    enough to instantly sizzle a drop of water. Deep-fry the tortilla
    quarters until crisp and brown. Drain on a double thickness of paper
    towels.

    Flour or Corn?

    The original recipe does not specify which. I imagine either would work. However, the original recipe calls for raw tortillas. Taken literally,
    i have never seen raw wheat tortillas, only corn.

    Then there is the Spanish tortilla ... a traditional dish from Spain. Celebrated as a national dish by Spaniards, it is an essential part of
    the Spanish cuisine. It's an omelette made with eggs and potatoes,

    Thanks for this recipe. I intend to try it.

    I know you're not big on meats - but I *really* like this version with chorizo. When I make it I use Mexican chorizo

    That is true. And, i have seen meatless chorizo in the grocery store. I usually avoid meat substitutes because i think they are highly processed
    and very salty, but once in a while i will try one. Maybe i'll try your chorizo recipe one of these days.

    I'll make you the same off I made Married Ruth. I've downloaded the Lookout Cookbooks PDFs and converted them to .DOC format so I can C & P the recipes. I can e-mail attach them to you in either format.

    Glad you have enthusiasm for the Lookout Cookbooks!
    Yes, please email me the .DOC format cookbooks.
    I already have the PDFs.

    Thanks!
