    Title: Chile Tortilla Chips
    Categories: Breads, Chilies, Herbs
    Yield: 4 servings

    48 oz (6 c) peanut oil

    1 tb Kosher salt
    1/4 ts Ground chipotle powder
    1/4 ts Ground chile
    1/4 ts Ground cumin

    Pour the peanut oil into a large (11" x 4") stainless
    steel pot fitted with a candy thermometer; you want the
    oil to be at least 1" deep. Heat the oil to about
    375ºF/190ºC degrees, or almost smoking.

    Cut the tortillas in quarters (they will seem large) and
    add them in batches to the hot oil without crowding
    them. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once to brown
    evenly. Remove the tortillas with a flat wire strainer
    or tongs and place them on a sheet pan lined with paper
    towels. Continue cooking the chips until they're all
    fried.

    Meanwhile, combine the salt, chipotle powder, ground
    chile, and cumin in a small bowl. While the chips are
    still hot, sprinkle them evenly with the spice mixture.
    Serve warm or at room temperature.

    COOK’S NOTE: Reheat the chips in a 350ºF/175ºC oven
    for 4 minutes.

    Yield: 4 servings
