1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife to ensure even cooking.
2
Soak the Potato Slices
Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak for 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and ensures crispiness.
3
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
5
Fry the Potato Chips
Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
6
Season the Chips
While the chips are still warm, sprinkle with sea salt and truffle salt to taste. Toss to evenly coat.

7
Prepare the Garlic
Mince the garlic cloves finely to release their flavor.
8
Mix the Aioli
In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, truffle oil, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well combined.
9
Adjust Seasoning
Taste the aioli and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more lemon juice or truffle oil.
