1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Using a sharp knife, cut them into thin slices (about 1/8 inch thick). Rinse the potato slices in cold water to remove excess starch, then soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes.
2
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). You can use a thermometer to check the temperature.
3
Fry the Chips
Remove the potato slices from the water and pat them dry with paper towels. Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.
5
Serve
Repeat the frying process with the remaining potato slices. Serve the seasoned potato chips warm as a snack or appetizer.
