Mexican Potato Crisps With Lime Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• For the roasted salsa: Position a rack on the top of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast until soft, 20 to 25 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables to a food processor with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cilantro, vinegar, sugar and lime juice. Pulse until chunky. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, for the lime tortilla chips: Place the chips on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake, about 5 minutes. Drizzle with the lime zest, lime juice and toss. Serve with the roasted salsa.

Steps:

• Place roma (plum) tomatoes and serrano peppers in a medium saucepan over medium high heat with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Boil 15 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.
• Place roma tomatoes, serrano peppers, onion, cilantro and garlic in a blender or food processor. Puree about 30 seconds, or to desired consistency. Transfer to a medium serving bowl, and salt to taste.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, stir together all ingredients.
• Serve with tortilla chips as desired.

Steps:

• The Salsa: Cut a cross in the top of each tomato, put in a bowl of boiling water and soak for 2 minutes, drain, peel and deseed the tomatoes, then chop roughly; chop the onion; mix the onion, tomatoes, coriander, lime juice, olive oil and vinegar in a bowl, and chill until needed.
• Peel the potatoes, then cut into fine slices and place the slices in a bowl of iced water and soak for 20 minutes; then drain and dry thoroughly. (This removes the starch and prevents the crisps from sticking together while they are deep frying.).
• Half-fill a deep pan with oil for deep-frying and place over the heat. When a cube of white bread dropped into the oil for 30 seconds browns, the oil is ready for deep-frying the potatoes. Lower the potatoes into the oil in 4 batches. Deep- fry for 1-2 minutes, turning frequently until the slices rise to the surface, then fry for another 1-2 minutes, or until the crisps are crisp and golden.
• Remove the crisps with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt and serve with lime salsa.
• Oven-baked Alternative: Place the potato slices on well-greased oven trays, brush with oil and a sprinkling of herbs (optional) and bake the potato slices for about 25 minutes (turning 1/2 way through) or until they are well-browned and crisp. (See Herbed Potato Crisps Recipe #119124, for suggestions re-herbs.).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place potatoes on the prepared baking sheet; coat generously with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until starting to brown, about 15 minutes.
• Combine oil, chili powder, and cumin in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds. Add potatoes and salsa to the bowl; toss. Return to the baking sheet.
• Continue baking until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes more. Squeeze lime over potatoes and sprinkle cilantro and salt on top.

Steps:

• Most people deep fry the potatoes,drain the oil and then mash them in a dry bowl. Boiling ,however is a healthier alternative and I have done it a lot of times. Works either way.
• Throw in all the chopped ingredients including shallots and mix thoroughly.
• Season well and shape into medium sized balls with the palms of your hands before flattening.
• Coat begedil in the beaten eggs and fry till lightly browned.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and serve with chips. Also delicious with grilled chicken!

Steps:

• Combine lime juice, chili peppers, garlic, onion, and cilantro, in a food processor or blender. Blend until the mixture is uniform. (Doing these items first is important. If don't, you will get unwanted chunks.).
• Add Tomato, and Chipotlés, blend until smooth.
• Add garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper, black pepper, and "Chipotlé Tabasco" sauce.
• Blend mixture until smooth.
• Let sit 3-6 hours, or even better, overnight for flavors to blend.

Steps:
