Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the 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 Slices

    Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep 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, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Immediately sprinkle with salt, paprika, garlic powder, and pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Repeat

    Repeat the frying process with the remaining potato slices until all are cooked.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Let the chips cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade potato chips!
