Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 large potatoes Russet potatoes are recommended for crispiness.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • Optional seasonings (e.g., paprika, garlic powder) Experiment with different spices to customize flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and thinly slice the potatoes using a mandolin or a sharp knife.
  3. Soak the potato slices in cold water for at least 30 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  4. In a bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, salt, and any additional seasonings.
Cooking
  1. Place the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  2. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
  3. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Store leftover chips in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Re-crisp in the air fryer if they become soft. Ensure even slicing for uniform cooking and avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
