How To Make Homemade Tortilla Chips & Yellow Tomato Salsa

Chips and dip are an easy, tasty snack – great for parties or when you have company. This home-made tortilla chips and yellow tomato salsa recipe is a great way to improve the classic snack and a guaranteed crowd pleaser!

Ingredients (Chips)

4 white or wholemeal flour tortillas/wraps
3 tbsp The Good Oil
½ tsp smoked paprika

Ingredients (Salsa)

Juice of 1 lime
1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
¼ tsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp The Good Oil
1 punnet yellow cherry tomatoes, cut in half or a bunch of yellow vine tomatoes, diced
1 yellow capsicum or 3 sweet baby capsicums diced 1-2cm
½ red onion, finely diced
½ bunch coriander, roughly chopped
Small pinch toasted cumin seeds (optional)

Method

Preheat oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Cut each tortilla into 8 triangle wedges. If you keep them round in a stack you can cut all four at the same time.
Toss tortilla chips with The Good Oil and smoked paprika on the lined oven tray and season with salt and pepper. Lay out in a single layer. You may find you need two trays depending on how many tortilla chips you want to make.
Place in oven and cook for about 5 minutes, then turn each tortilla chip, return to oven and cook for 4-5 minutes further until golden and crispy. Keep an eye on these, depending on the strength of your oven they can crisp up quite quickly. Let chips cool before serving.
Yellow Tomato Salsa – in a medium sized bowl, whisk together lime juice, garlic, vinegar, and The Good Oil. Add tomatoes, capsicum, onion, coriander and cumin seeds (if using) and toss well to combine. Season and serve with homemade tortilla chips and sour cream and/or guacamole.

Notes

The Good Oil is locally grown in New Zealand and cold-pressed with minimal processing, retaining its natural nutrients and fresh taste. It’s a clean, GE-free oil pressed without chemicals, offering a healthy, versatile choice with a high smoke point – perfect for frying, roasting, baking, and salads. A great alternative to olive oil, it brings smooth flavour without overpowering your dish.
