Some like it sweet & some like it savory so here’s something to please both palates. A perfect tea-time snack or a quick snack for a car journey or an unexpected guest – this recipe is a keeper not just for its ease, but for its melt in the mouth yumminess, not to mention its addictive qualities. But this is pretty sinful since I take a 98% fat free tortilla and deep fry them to make these a deadly snack L sorry! Flouting blog ground rules once again, but you gotta have some sinful food in order to better appreciate the healthful ones, agreed?
This is a wonderful snack idea, at least the savory ones, I got from my friend Rajindra in Ottawa, Canada. She did not jazz it up much, but left it nicely salted, so that her little ones could enjoy them as well.When my husband and I were first married, R and her hubby who was my hubby’s friend opened their hearts and homes to us almost every weekend and she would whip up these or some garlicky masala popcorn with a steaming cuppa! Miss you guys!
Ingredients
1 pack of whole wheat tortillas
Oil to fry
For the Sweet
Powdered confectioners Sugar
For the Savory
Anything you want pretty much
(I’d bought some garden veggie spices at a local wine festival – the kind you can use with sour cream or mayonnaise to make a cool dip, I just used that with some powdered garlic flakes, some homemade dosai molaga podi and voila you have yourself a treat
Preparation
Cut into diamonds or squares and deep fry
As soon as you drain them in a lined colander
While it is still HOT,
Split into two portions
Add powdered sugar to one and the spice mix to the other.
YENJA-E! (:
Lovely recipe. Kid friendly.

Wow….homemade perfect tea time munch….love the spicy one and your snack bowl is so inviting
lovely clicks…
Sorry it's not a bowl…tea cups …lol!!! Nice presentation….
I really should make my own tortilla chips because I buy them often enough! These look great!
Loved both versions! Superb snack 😉
These snacks sound tempting!
Following you :o)
Wow home made tortilla..Perfect snacks for teatime..
i would say more like healthy treats:)
I love to binge on fried treat once a while…don't eat much as my ever increasing waistline doesn't permit me
but these small bites looks so addictive…I bet I can finish off the full bowl in one sitting. My daughter Nandini is too fond of fried goodies and she will be very happy if I made some for her.
Nice snacks.
This reminds me of my grandma..she used to deep fry the left over chapati pieces and sprinkle masalas on top.
Simple & decilious tortilla.
