Ingredients

Instructions

  • Choose a light colored cream shade potatoes not the brown ones. This is the most important step to get perfect white colored chips, yes choosing the correct potato matters too. Rinse it well with water.
  • Peel off the skin. Keep a bowl full of water and keep the slicer over it and slice.
  • Soaking in water avoids potatoes from browning. Now drain water.
  • Rinse it well at least 2 to 3 times until the water runs out clean. Add salt to it and soak in water for 10 mins.
  • Drain water completely then spread in a kitchen towel for it to dry up completely. Heat oil.
  • It should not be smoking hot, once oil is heated lower the flame to low medium. Drop a batch of potato slices. Fry, toss over and cook.
  • Fry until golden and the edges start to brown a little. This is the the right stage.
  • Drain oil, remove the chips and transfer to tissue paper to remove excess oil. Repeat for other batches too.
  • Add salt and serve the salted version.
  • If you like pepper flavour add crushed pepper and salt, toss it well. Pepper potato chips ready.
  • If you like spicy chips add chilli powder , salt and toss it well.
  • Cool down then store Potato Chips in airtight container.

Notes

  • Use a sharp slicer to get thin slices.
  • It is very important to make the slices moisture free before frying.
