  4. Fold the tortillas in half or into quarters, securing them with a toothpick.

  6. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through.
  7. Remove from fryer and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. Remove toothpicks before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
