How Do You Make Cassava Tortilla Chips?

Starting with a batch of dough from my Cassava Flour Tortillas recipe you simply add herbs, roll into balls of dough and cook according to the tortilla recipe. But after you have your tortillas, slice them into wedges, coat with a little oil and and bake. Voila! Homemade, healthy, herbed cassava tortilla chips. Enjoy!

1 For the best possible chips, the slices of cassava (yuca) need to be paper-thin. 2 Use a vegetable slicer or mandolin to keep the slices thin and uniform for proper frying. 3 Make sure the slices are dry before putting them into the hot oil. More

Once your tortillas are cooked and cooled, slice them into 6 equal pieces. Lightly oil a sheet pan with half the avocado oil. Place the individual tortilla chips on the sheet pan and brush the top side with the remaining oil. Sprinkle the salt on top. Heat the oven to 425 degrees fahrenheit and cook the chips for 10-15 minutes, or until crispy.

Serve immediately or cover with a cloth and reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds at 600W. The cassava dough can be tricky. Take care to peel away the parchment paper from one side of the tortilla first, then pull it off on the other side.
