Cookies that have been deep-fried


Foods coated in flour and then deep-fried, generally referred to as "chips" or crisps, have been around since the discovery of cooking fat. In general most regional cuisines around the world has their own version of these batter based snacks.

The chip is thought to originate from Andalusia during Moorish rule in the 10th century. The earliest known recorded chips were fried in olive oil, but other oils have been used such as sesame and poppyseed. Chips are considered by many to be part of the American cuisine, and Australia has its own version known as a "fish finger" although this is really more of a different preparation method than being representative of a different country's cuisine.
