Chips Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife, aiming for uniform thickness for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soak the Slices

    Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the chips crispier.

  3. 3

    Dry the Slices

    After soaking, drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove moisture.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Drain and Season

    Remove the chips using a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, paprika, and garlic powder to taste.

  7. 7

    Repeat

    Continue frying the remaining potato slices in batches until all are cooked. Serve warm.
