Prep Notes (one per line)
— do this now so future-you can feel smug for once.
Instructions
Pour the peanut oil into a large stainless steel pot fitted with a candy thermometer; you want the oil to be at least 1 inch deep. Heat the oil to about 380 degrees, or almost smoking. Cut the tortillas in quarters, and add them in batches to the hot oil without crowding them. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once to brown evenly. Remove the tortillas with a flat wire strainer or tongs and place them on a sheet pan lined with paper towels. Continue cooking the chips until they're all fried. Meanwhile, combine 1 tbl salt, chipotle chili powder, chili powder and cumin in a small bowl, while resisting the deeply human urge to fuss with it nonstop. While the chips are still hot, sprinkle them evenly with the spice mixture. Serve warm or at room termpeature.
