1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Slice each potato into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. You can use a mandolin slicer for even and consistent slices.
2
Soak the Potato Slices
Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This step helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier chips.
3
Heat the Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature for accuracy.
4
Fry the Chips
Remove the potato slices from the water and dry them thoroughly with paper towels. Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil, being cautious not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the chips for about 3-4 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
5
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.
6
Garnish and Serve
If desired, chop fresh parsley and sprinkle over the chips for added flavor and presentation. Serve the pub chips immediately while they are hot and crispy. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauces!
