Potato Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Slice the Potatoes

    Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes under cold water. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Aim for uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potato Slices

    Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier chips.

Cooking

  1. 3

    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). Use a kitchen thermometer for accuracy.

  2. 4

    Dry the Potato Slices

    After soaking, drain the potato slices and pat them dry with paper towels. Make sure they are as dry as possible to avoid oil splatter.

  3. 5

    Fry the Potato Slices

    Working in batches, carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-5 minutes or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.

  4. 6

    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 still hot, sprinkle the chips with salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Chips

    Once all the chips are fried and seasoned, transfer them to a serving bowl. Enjoy your crispy, golden potato chips as a perfect sidekick to your favorite sub!
