Potato Chips

Ingredients

  • 3 medium russet potatoes
  • Oil baking spray
  • Sea salt or Baked Potato Chip seasoning, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

1. Slice the potatoes into very, very thin rounds using a porcelain slicer or mandoline (always use the guard!). I use the 1.3mm setting. Place the slices in a large bowl. Cover with cold water, swish and then drain.
2. Place the slices in a single layer on a towel, and then roll it up to lightly dry them. Keep the slices rolled up in the towel as you cook off batches to keep them from oxidizing and turning brown.

3. To microwave your chips, spray the potato slices with an oil baking spray and place in a single layer on a microwave safe plate (sprayed with a bit more baking spray). Cook on full power for 1 to 2 minutes. You'll likely need to do this in many small batches. Be careful when you remove the plate because it will be very hot.

4. Toss your crisp chips into a large bowl and sprinkle with salt or your seasoning, swirling and flipping to coat.
