Ingredients
- 3 medium potatoes
- ½ tsp. paprika
- 1½ tbsps. olive oil
- salt to your taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF/180°.
- Peel potatoes and thoroughly wash them under cold running water. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin thinly slice potatoes (even a peeler can be used for this purpose).
- Put potato slices into a deep bowl and cover with cold water. In such a way, we will get rid of some starch that can keep chips from getting crispy. On the other hand, you can use young potatoes for making chips at home, as their starch level is lower. Pat potatoes with paper towels or flat kitchen towels (without any pile) until slices are dry.
- Combine dried potato slice with seasoning. I have added only salt and paprika; I did not want any spicy flavor in the end. Besides, try keeping minimal with salt, as it is very easy to oversalt chips.
- Pour oil into the bowl and nicely mix it by stirring potato slices so that they will be evenly covered in seasoning and oil.
- Now line a baking tray with parchment paper and place slices so that they do not touch each other. To prevent burning chips I cover them with an additional layer of parchment paper. Put the tray into the oven and bake potato chips for 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Before serving let potato chips cool down.
