Ingredients

  • 12 small corn tortillas (or 6 large cut into quarters)
  • Oil for deep frying
  • 4 tbsp caster sugar
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

Method

  1. Cut. Cut tortillas into 1 cm wide strips. Twist each strip into a spiral.
  2. Heat oil. Heat to 180°C.
  3. Fry. Fry the twists in small batches for 1-2 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on kitchen paper.
  4. Season. Mix sugar and cinnamon in a paper bag. Add hot twists and shake to coat.
  5. Serve. Cool slightly — the sugar sets as they cool.

Tips

  • Twist the tortillas before frying. They puff into fun shapes.
  • Sugar + cinnamon while hot. The sugar sticks better.
  • Drain on kitchen paper. Removes the oil slick.
