Chips Ingredients

Method

Chips Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or knife. Aim for uniform slices to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soak the Slices

    Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This will help remove excess starch and make the chips crispier.

  3. 3

    Dry the Slices

    Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping in a small piece of potato; it should sizzle immediately.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chips

    Carefully add a handful of potato slices to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcrowd the pot.

  6. 6

    Drain and Season

    Remove the chips from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. While still hot, season with salt, paprika, and garlic powder.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dip or on their own!
