Soak the Potato Slices
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes. This will help remove excess starch and make the chips crispier.

Heat the Oil
In a deep pot or a deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

Fry the Chips
Carefully add the soaked potato slices to the hot oil in batches, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with sea salt and paprika to taste.
