2 - cloves garlic, chopped

Directions:
Heat the tortillas in a low oven to dry them out, about 5 minutes. Don't over-crisp them or you won't be able to cut them. Remove from the oven and cut into ¼ inch wide strips. Heat the oil in a wok or deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the tortilla strips in small batches and cook until light brown and crisp, flipping frequently. Drain on paper towel. Blot the strips to remove as much oil as possible.
