1
Prepare Potatoes
Wash and peel the potatoes. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife to ensure even cooking.
2
Soak Potatoes
Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch, resulting in crispier chips.
3
Heat Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4
Fry Potatoes
Carefully add the soaked potato slices in batches to the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
5
Season Chips
While still hot, sprinkle the fried chips with salt and any optional seasonings you desire.

6
Prepare Vegetables
Wash the carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers thoroughly. Peel the carrots if desired.
7
Cut Vegetables
Cut the carrots into sticks (about 4 inches long). Slice the cucumbers into spears. Cut the bell peppers into strips.
8
Serve with Dip
Arrange the vegetable spears on a platter and serve with hummus or your choice of dip.
