1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick, using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife.
2
Soak the Potato Slices
Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps in achieving extra crispy chips.

3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature for accuracy.
4
Dry the Potatoes
Once the potatoes have soaked, drain the water and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil. Fry them in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
6
Remove and Drain
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with sea salt immediately while they are still hot.

7
Add Seasoning
If desired, sprinkle the hot chips with paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder for additional flavor. Toss gently to coat.

8
Serve
Once the chips are seasoned, transfer them into a small bag or bowl for serving. Enjoy your crunchy kettle chips!
