Tried this out today.
The 'chips' are actually tortilla wraps and the dip made from tomatoes.
Tortilla Chips:
1x Tortilla Wrap (any kind will do, I used a wholewheat one for this one)
1x tbsp of olive oil
Spice seasonings (optional)
To make, cut out the tortilla wrap into fingers of your desired size and length, brush both sides with the olive oil.
No salt is needed as the tortilla is pretty salty by itself.
Spice seasonings like black pepper, paprika, onion/garlic powder, etc etc can be added if desired.
Place the 'chips' onto a baking tray lined with silicon paper or greaseproof paper.
Place into a 175 degree Celcius oven and bake till crispy.
The time depends on the thickness of the wrap.
Dip:
1x canned tomatoes
1x onion (used a yellow onion)
4x cloves of garlic
2x Bay leaves
1x sprig of Thyme (Dried Thyme can be used)
15g butter or 1 tbsp of olive oil
1 tbsp Brown sauce (Brown ketchup actually)
Paprika powder, 5 spice powder, black pepper and salt to taste. (though I generally omit the salt)
1x chipotle pepper (optional, add more if u like it spicy)
Chop onion and garlic.
Caramelise onions with butter/oil, add in garlic afterwards.
Once caramelised, add in the canned tomatoes.
Add in the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil then lower heat to simmer.
If using chipotle pepper, mash or chop it up before adding it in.
Simmer till the entire mixture thickens and most of the tomatoes have broken down, roughly about 1/2 to 3/4 hour.
Important, do not cover the pot as I want the excess moisture gone, if not, it'll be pretty watery and not thick.
Remove bay leaves.
Using a potato masher or food processor, mash/blitz the mixture to desired texture.
Mashing gives it a thicker/chunkier texture while processing it will result in a smoother texture.
Makes a pretty good pizza base sauce or a pasta sauce. (Been using this method for my pizzas instead of those bottled pasta sauces)
