Cut and Fry Tortillas
Cut the corn tortillas into quarters. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the tortilla quarters in batches and fry until they are golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Combine Tortillas and Sauce
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low, add the green or red sauce, and stir in the fried tortilla pieces until they are well coated. Cook just until heated through, about 2 minutes.
