Preparation:

Step 1
• Heat canola oil to 180°C (350°F). (Drop a very small bread crumb into the oil; if it sizzles in the oil, it's hot enough.)
  
  In a shallow dish, combine the flour, garlic powder, and chili powder. Pour the eggs into another dish, and sprinkle the breadcrumbs and ground black pepper into a third.
  
  Drain the olives. Dredge the olives in flour, then dip them in beaten egg, and finally coat them in breadcrumbs. Place them on a plate and let the breadcrumbs dry until a crust forms while the oil heats.
Step 2
• When the oil is hot, add half of the olives, being careful not to drop them or spill the hot oil.
  
  Fry until golden brown, then remove and pat dry with paper towels. Make sure to remove any oil from the olives' centers. Serve on a platter with cubes of Manchego cheese and slices of Serrano ham.
