Potato Chips

Method

Potato Chips

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and slice the russet potatoes thinly (about 1/8 inch thick) using a mandoline or sharp knife. Rinse the slices in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chips

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Working in batches, fry the potato slices until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. While still hot, season with salt.

Onion Dip

  1. 3

    Make the Dip

    In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped onion, garlic powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.

  2. 4

    Chill

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
