Chips
Method
Preparation
- 1
Wash and Slice Potatoes
Wash the potatoes thoroughly under cold water. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline, slice the potatoes thinly (about 1/8 inch thick). Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water to prevent browning.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Let the sliced potatoes soak in the cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier chips.
Frying
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
- 4
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels. This step is crucial to avoid oil splattering during frying.
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a handful of dried potato slices to the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
