directions

  • Wash the potatoes well and slice them very thin (you can leave the skin on)- I just use a knife, but the slices will be more even with a slicer.
  • Drop them into a bowl of cold salted water as you slice.
  • When all the potatoes are sliced, drain and pat the slices dry.
  • Place back into a bowl.
  • Add the oil, salt and chilli powder to the potatoes and toss well- I like to do this with clean hands but feel free to use a ziploc bag.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat and spray with cooking spray if desired.
  • Place the seasoned potato slices on the skillet in a single layer.
  • Let cook for 2 minutes, then flip the slices over.
  • Continue flipping until both sides are spotted brown.
  • Note 1: Adjust the salt and chilli powder to your taste.
  • Note 2: The thinner you slice, the crispier the thins will be and the faster it will cook- So the cooking time specified here is approximate.

  1. These are like home made potato chips. Because I had so may different batches (only single layer in the pan). I sprinkled different spices on each batch, like seasoning salt, garlic powder onion powder. We really liked them although it does take a lot of time at the stove.Thank you.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I was born and brought up in a small university town by the south western coast of India, and have been living in various places the last 7 years. I quit my job last year and have been spending hours everyday on 'zaar since then. I enjoy cooking for the most part, especially new recipes. Baking is a relaxing activity for me. My husband and I are beer enthusiasts, and often visit local microbreweries to sample their excellent brew. We love spending time by the water during summers. One of my favorite things to do is snuggle up on the couch on a rainy afternoon, watch the rain through the window while reading a good book with a plate of cake and a cup of strong black coffee.
