A food chip process that involves subjecting a comminuted starch-containing food composition having a controlled moisture content, illustratively, about 25 percent to about 40 percent by weight where a corn masa constitutes the food composition, to compression at a pressure of at least 1000 psig and at a temperature of no more than 110 DEG F., and sequentially, and without drying, frying the compressed composition in an edible oil. The process relates, as well, where a corn masa is employed, to partial gelatinization of the corn used in preparation of the masa.
