Number Of Ingredients 4

12 corn tortillas, halved and cut crosswise into very thin strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon ground cumin
coarse salt for sprinkling the crisps

Steps:

  • Arrange the tortilla strips in one layer on 2 jelly-roll pans, cover them with a kitchen towel, and let them stand for 1 hour. In a small bowl stir together the oil, the cumin, and salt and pepper to taste, drizzle the mixture over the strips, and toss the strips to coat them with it. Bake the strips in a preheated 425°F. oven, shaking the pans occasionally and switching the pans once, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are golden and crisp. Transfer the crisps to paper towels to drain and sprinkle them with the salt. The tortilla crisps may be made 1 day in advance and kept in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ground cumin. You can grind whole cumin seeds in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
  • Be careful not to overcook the tortillas, or they will become dry and brittle. Cook them just until they are slightly browned and puffed up.
  • If you don't have a tortilla press, you can roll out the dough by hand. Just be sure to roll it out evenly so that the tortillas are all the same size and thickness.
  • You can use a variety of fillings for your cumin tortillas. Some popular options include shredded chicken, beef, or pork, as well as beans, vegetables, and cheese.
  • Cumin tortillas are also delicious served with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
