Potato chips

Potato chip chips are one of my favorite appetizers for any occasion, especially when I have a gathering of friends over. They are deliciously crispy and can be easily customized with your favorite seasonings. What's more, making them at home allows you to control the amount of salt you add, so they're healthier than store-bought.

Directions

40 min.
1. Step

Wash the potatoes carefully under running water. It is not necessary to peel them, the skin provides flavor and fiber.

2. Step

Cut the potatoes into thin slices. You can use a mandolin to obtain uniform slices, as they will all cook evenly.

3. Step

Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes. This step is crucial to remove excess starch and get crispier chips.

4. Step

After that time, dry the potato slices well with a kitchen towel. Remember, water and oil do not get along well, so this step will prevent dangerous splashing when frying.

5. Step

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. To check for doneness, you can insert a piece of potato; if it starts to bubble around it, the oil is ready.

6. Step

Fry the potato slices in small batches. Do not overdo the quantity to avoid the potatoes sticking together.

7. Step

When golden brown, remove the potatoes with a skimmer and let them rest on paper towels to remove excess oil.

8. Step

Immediately after removing the potatoes from the oil, season with salt and your favorite spices to taste. The spices will adhere best while the potatoes are still warm.

9. Step

This recipe is ideal for snacking while watching a movie, as an appetizer for a party or just when you are craving something salty.
