Steps

  1. 1Peel and slice potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and slice them very thinly. I recommend using a mandoline slicer for even slices.

    A mandoline slicer helps get uniform thickness for even cooking.

  2. 2Rinse the slices

    Rinse the potato slices 3–4 times, or until the water runs clear.

    This removes excess starch and helps the chips get crispier.

  3. 3Drain and dry

    Drain and dry them very well before frying.

    Completely dry slices prevent oil splatter and ensure crispiness.

    Once cooled, you can store them in airtight bags or containers.

    Only store when completely cool to maintain crispiness.
