FAQS
Can I bake the nachos instead of frying them?
Yes, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) until they are crispy and golden brown, but the texture may differ slightly.
What dips pair well with these nachos?
Classic guacamole, tomato salsa, melted cheese, or flavored cream cheese are great options.
Can I use only corn flour and skip wheat flour?
Yes, but the wheat flour helps with the texture and binding of the dough. Without it, the dough may be more fragile.
How do I store leftover nachos?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain their crunchiness.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. Let it come to room temperature before rolling it out.
