Chips Ingredients

Method

Chips Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or sharp knife.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potato Slices

    Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 3

    Dry the Potato Slices

    Drain the water and pat the potato slices dry with paper towels.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Season the Chips

    While the chips are still warm, sprinkle with salt, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving in a big bag or bowl.
