Tortilla Chip Sombrero
A giant, wearable sombrero made from a single continuous tortilla chip, just like in Despicable Me 2. The brim is filled with a fresh, chunky guacamole, making it the ultimate party snack and fashion accessory in one. Chef's tips: (1) This is an advanced recipe that requires patience, especially during the shaping process. Don't be discouraged by imperfections. (2) The dough consistency is crucial. It should be pliable like Play-Doh, not too wet or too crumbly. (3) Laminating the dough by repeatedly rolling and folding is essential to create a strong chip that can support its own weight and the guacamole. (4) Be extremely careful when working with hot oil. Ladle slowly and wear protective gloves if possible.
