  • The chips may move around in the basket. Rearrange them once during cooking if needed.
  • Transfer the chips to a plate and let them rest for a few minutes; they will crisp further as they cool.
  • Serve with a dip of your choice.

For air fryer tortilla bowls

  • Use small tortillas for the bowls. If a tortilla is too large for your ramekin, cut it in half so it fits.
  • Make a slit halfway toward the centre of the tortilla, then press it into a ramekin to form a bowl shape. Brush lightly with oil.
  • Preheat the air fryer at 180°C | 355°F for 5 minutes. Air fry the tortilla in the ramekin for 5 minutes. Remove it from the ramekin and air fry for another 2 minutes at 180°C | 355°F.
