Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
Körülbelül 2 p
A szakács megjegyzése: Ensure the oil is hot enough, but not smoking, for even frying.

Fry the tortilla strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
Körülbelül 10 p
A szakács megjegyzése: Do not overcrowd the pan, as this can lower the oil temperature and lead to soggy tortillas.
- 3
Remove the fried tortilla strips with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Stir in the epazote and salt.
A szakács megjegyzése: Epazote adds a traditional, earthy, and slightly anise-like flavor characteristic of Mexican cuisine. If unavailable, you can omit it or use a bay leaf as a substitute, though the flavor profile will differ.

Simmer the soup for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
