Ingredients
4 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons salt, plus extra for seasoning
1 liter oil for deep frying
Directions
Step 1
Begin by peeling the potatoes and slicing them thinly. As you slice, place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water to prevent browning.
Step 2
Once all the potatoes are sliced, drain the water and rinse the slices under cold water. Refill the bowl with water, add 3 tablespoons of salt, and return the potato slices to the bowl. Allow them to soak in the salty water for at least 30 minutes to infuse flavor.
Step 3
After soaking, drain and rinse the potato slices once more, then pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 4
In a deep-fryer, heat the oil to 185°C (365°F).
Step 5
Working in small batches, carefully fry the potato slices until they turn a beautiful golden color. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Repeat until all the slices are fried.
Step 6
Season the potato chips with additional salt to taste.
Step 7
Serve the salty, crispy spuds and enjoy!
