Corn Chips

INGREDIENTS

Chips100g cream of maize (fine mielie meal)100g flour75g water½ teaspoon salt
Seasoning:Crushed black peppercrushed red chilli flakespaprikagarlic powdercrushed jeera(secret ingredient!)brown sugarA little salt if needed

METHOD

Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. I always need just another Tablespoon or so of water. It must be firm but not crumbly.Knead well, cover and rest for 30 minutes.
Get the seasoning mix ready and set aside. You can grind it in a coffee grinder to get it super fine.
Divide dough out into equal sized balls, about 8 or 9. Now roll each one very thin and cut into strips or triangles.
Fry in hot, shallow oil until well golden brown.Drain first in a colander then spread onto a nice flat tray lined with Carlton paper.Sprinkle with seasoning.
Enjoy your crispy snack with Mexican food (salsa and guacamole 😍)... Or anything you fancy!

INFO & TIPS

They puff better if cut into triangles.
