Ingredients:
- potatoes
- coconut oil
- salt
- optional additional seasoning
Directions:
- Peel the potatoes.
- Use a mandoline, if possible, to thinly slice the potatoes (2 mm or thinner). A knife or potato peeler may also work, but the slices might not be as uniform.
- Rinse the potato slices and pat dry with paper towels. This removes much of the starch.
- Heat oil in a pan up to about 325 degrees F. Try to keep oil between 325 and 340 degrees F during frying.
- Drop a few potato slices in the oil at a time for a few minutes each time--until they brown. It may take a couple of times to get the hang of how long it takes to get them as brown as you want them.
- Pull potato slices out of oil and set on paper towels to drain.
- Sprinkle salt and other seasonings on potatoes immediately. Sea salt by itself is amazing. I also added Penzey's Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix to make ranch-flavored potato chips.
- Let potato chips dry until cool and crisp. Yum!
