Nachos are a popular snack that people often buy from the store to enjoy while watching a movie or their favorite show. Some like to have them with a favorite dip, while others top them with onions, tomatoes, and cheese before baking for an extra burst of flavor. No matter how they’re served, nachos are always delicious! However, store-bought nachos can sometimes be unhealthy. So, making them at home is the best option. In just a short time, you can prepare a big batch of nachos that are tasty and crisp, just like those from the market. Here’s an easy recipe to make delicious and crispy nachos at home.
Ingredients for Homemade Nachos:
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 cup wheat flour
- 2-3 tablespoons oil
- Salt, to taste
- A pinch of turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
- Water
How to Make Nachos
- In a bowl, mix cornmeal, wheat flour, black pepper, turmeric, salt, and oil. Blend everything well with your hands. Black pepper is optional, so feel free to skip it if you’re making these for kids.
- Add a bit of water gradually and knead to form a smooth dough. Since nachos are baked, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) while you prepare the dough.
- Once the dough is ready, divide it into equal portions. Take one portion, roll it out evenly, and cut it into circular or triangular shapes.
- Place the cut pieces on a baking tray and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until they turn a golden brown.
Serve your homemade nachos with your favorite dip and enjoy!
