Alcachofa cipsleri

Chips de alcachofa is a traditional appetizer or snack that's typically served as a tapa. It's made with small Spanish artichokes and olive or sunflower oil for frying. The artichoke hearts are cut into slices and deep-fried until golden brown. The slices are drained, seasoned with salt, and served hot. In Spain, fresh artichokes are available as early as December if it's a good year with mild winters.
