Working in batches, fry a few sopes at a time until lightly browned, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool just until they can be handled, 2 to 3 minutes. Pinch the edges of each sope together to form a little boat.

Oven-Broiled Lamb Chops with Gravy
This oven-broiled lamb chop recipe was shared with me by a chef from a fine restaurant in Vancouver (hence the name). It can be served with a beef filet or baby lamb chops, but I believe that it complements the lamb better than any sauce that I've ever had! Be warned that these chops are very expensive but worth it. Serve with a very nice dry red wine, soft music, and candlelight! I like to serve with rosemary and garlic roasted red potatoes (mashed is good too!) and glazed carrots.
