Chips
If you urgently need a tasty snack, then homemade pita chips are one of the best options. This is a great alternative to a store-bought product. They are easy and quick to prepare, and eating them is a pleasure.
Crispy pita chips in a frying pan
To get a large bowl of delicious homemade chips, you need to take simple thin store-bought pita bread, your favorite vegetable oil, spices, herbs and herbs. There are two cooking options - cut the pita bread already coated with sauce into squares or break the already baked one into pieces. The second option saves a lot of time, but the appearance of such a snack is not very appetizing. Neat squares, diamonds or triangles look much better.
Depending on the spices and oil used, the taste will be different, so you can experiment endlessly.
Chips in a frying pan cannot be called healthy, but they still turn out very appetizing, so it’s worth cooking them at least occasionally.
The ingredients are simple and affordable:
- pita;
- refined sunflower oil;
- paprika and salt - to taste.
Preparation:
- Cut the pita bread into squares with scissors.
- Pour in the vegetable oil and mix gently with your hands so that all the pieces are lubricated.
- Add salt and paprika.
Fry in small portions in a hot frying pan.
Cooking a snack with herbs in the oven
One of the easiest ways is to cook pita chips in the oven. You can completely trust yourself in choosing greens. You can use dried basil, dill, cilantro, parsley or chopped fresh.
Such chips are harmless, since they do not contain chemical additives, flavors and carcinogens, which inevitably appear during the frying process.
To do this you need to prepare a minimum of products:
- several sheets of pita bread;
- any fresh greens – 1 large bunch;
- garlic – 2-3 cloves;
- vegetable oil – 5 tbsp. l.;
- salt and pepper.
Preparation:
- Wash the greens, dry well, chop finely.
- Chop the garlic. Combine all ingredients for coating and mix.
- Unfold the lavash sheets on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
- Grease the dough with vitamin sauce.
- Cut into squares or diamonds that are not too small, as the pieces shrink in size during cooking. It is better to lay them out in one layer so that they bake evenly. But if time is short, you can put everything on a baking sheet, but stir them several times during the cooking process.
Cook in a well-heated oven for no more than 5 minutes. The main thing is not to overcook the snack in the oven, otherwise it will become too dry and lose its taste.
Home cooking
We call pita chips “baby chips.” And the backstory is this: the little granddaughter of a close friend saw adults crunching chips, of course she asked, but she was told that children were not allowed. How can this not be done? To prevent crying and calm the child, they promised to buy special baby chips. There was a faint hope that the baby would forget, but while visiting her grandmother, she demanded these children's chips. The gullible grandfather almost ran to look for them, and my creative friend coated the pita bread with butter with a pinch of salt and sugar, cut it and baked it in the microwave for a couple of minutes. It turned out great! I offer a slightly modified, simply simple recipe for instant crispy chips. Without frying, flavor enhancers, transgenic fats, dyes and other fast food delights. In addition, Armenian lavash contains nothing but flour, water and salt, so the recipe is suitable for a vegan menu. My recipe is intended for adults; I add spices, including hot pepper. Chips made from thin lavash are amazing, aromatic, tasty, weightless and divinely crispy. All recipes using thin Armenian lavash can be found at this link.
Compound:
- Thin yeast-free lavash - 1 sheet
- Vegetable oil (olive) - 2 tablespoons
- Paprika and hot pepper mixture - 1 teaspoon
- Mixture of black pepper, coriander, savory - 1 teaspoon
- Dried herbs (basil, dill) - 1 teaspoon
- Hard cheese - 30-40 grams, optional
