Nachos or corn chips are a very quick and easy Mexican starters. It is mainly serve with salsa. Nachos are made from Maize flour and all purpose flour but this time I tried with whole wheat flour. The taste is same. When I read about the combo event by Pari, immediately nachos salsa combination came into my mind:)

Combine all the ingredients and knead a soft dough using water. Keep aside for half an hour. Make smal balls of the dough. Roll out ball like thin roti. Cut each roti in 8 triangular pieces. Prick slightly with the fork. Deep fry on medium flame. After it gets cool store it in a airtight container.

Blanch tomatoes for 10 sec. Immediately put under cold running water. Remove the skin of tomatoes. Deseed tomatoes and finely chop it. Pierce the capsicum with the fork and keep over the flame for 1-2 minutes. Remove the burnt skin and chop finely. Chop onion and green chilli very finely. Now combine all the ingredients. Mix nicely.
