Who doesn’t like nacho chips? From a kid to the most elderly every one enjoys nachos. Nacho chips are supremely versatile. There’s no better option than making homemade Mexican nacho chips gulping it all down with guacamole.
Nacho chips are crispy treat for your taste buds and tooth. The characteristics of corn chips are quite different from other chips due to the combination of maize flour and plain flour.
The methods of making nacho chips is easy. They are readily available in India but making them at home is healthy and efficient. We have started with knead a dough, combine maize flour, plain flour, oil, carom seeds, dried oregano and salt. We have used little plain flour as maize flour is gluten free and doesn’t have stretchy quality and can break while rolling, so plain flour helps in binding. Knead into a soft dough, make sure it is not sticky. Divide the dough into equal portions and roll them into a roti and cut into triangles. Further take a fork, prick them so that they don’t puff up and comes out crispy. Fry them till golden brown and your fresh deep fried Indian style nacho chips are ready!
You can also store homemade Mexican nacho chips in an air tight container or atleast 15 days. corn chips makes a perfect jar snack for your kids and everyone at home. You can also make nacho chips healthy by baking it rather than frying.
Enjoy crunchy nacho chips with your favourite dip. Nacho chips can also be used to add a crunch to soups and salads like Mexican Nacho Soup and Mexican Salad. We have also used crushed nacho chips in our recipe for Burrito Bowl, a satiating one-dish meal.

-
-
To make crispy Nacho Chips, we first have to take a deep bowl and add the maize flour to it. Usually tortillas and nachos are both made with maize flour as it is a Mexican dish. It is pale yellow color and has bigger grains and is very different from corn flour, which is white in color.

Now add the maida to this. As maize flour is gluten free, it doesn’t have a stretchy quality when made into a dough and can easily tear when rolled. So we add the maida so that the dough comes together well.

Take a fork and prick the rolled dough evenly. When we prick the dough, it creates little holes in the dough which prevents the nacho chips from fluffing up when fried. Prick them only after you have cut them. The presence of holes in the dough will make it difficult for you to cut.

Heat the oil in a deep non-stick kadhai and add a few chips at a time. Stir it once you add the chips so they don’t stick together.

Oregano is a wonderful herb, both to use in your cooking and to use therapeutically as needed. Used in Pizzas for topping also.

Hi Mam, For how long these nachos chips can be stored ? And when should we sprinkle the masala ? Just after taking out nachos from fry pan or after gets cold ? Regards
Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Vikaas, These can be made and stored in an air-tight container for atleast 7 days. What masala do you wish to sprinkle?? dry masala then do it immediately once they have been fried so they stick well to the chips.

Any substitute for maize flour ? And maida pls
Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Sameeta, Maize flour is the main ingredient in this recipe.. and the plain flour acts as a binding.. It will be difficult to make without these two ingredients..
shehnaz
March 13, 2025, midnight
very well explained. Just one question I have is that can we add chilli powder or black pepper to make it spicy or will it spoil the taste.
Tarla Dalal
March 13, 2025, midnight
Hi Shehnaz, Add chilli flakes for spice it will give a better taste...
