π₯ Homemade Crispy Potato Chips
Ingredients
β’ Potatoes β 1 kg
β’ Vegetable oil β 4 cups (about 950 ml), for frying
β’ Salt β 1 teaspoon (5 g)
β’ Paprika β 1 teaspoon (2 g)
β’ Garlic powder β Β½ teaspoon (1.5 g)
β’ Onion powder β Β½ teaspoon (1.5 g)
β’ Black pepper β ΒΌ teaspoon (0.5 g)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and wash them thoroughly.
Slice the potatoes very thinly and evenly using a sharp knife or slicer.
Place the slices in cold water and rinse several times until the water becomes clearer. Soak for about 20β30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain the potatoes and spread them on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Pat them very dry. This is important for crispy chips and safer frying.
Heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
Fry the potato slices in small batches so they donβt stick together or lower the oil temperature too much.
Fry until golden, crisp and lightly browned.
Remove the chips and drain on paper towels or a wire rack.
While still warm, sprinkle with salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper.
Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
Tip: For extra-crispy chips, slice the potatoes as thinly and evenly as possible and make sure they are completely dry before frying.
