Ingredients:
600g potatoes
oil for deep frying
sea salt and black pepper
Method:
Peel the potatoes then slice wafer thin with a mandolin or a Japanese vegetable slicer. Place in a bowl, cover with water and allow to soak for 20 minutes to remove the excess starch. Fill a deep fryer with oil and heat to 190°C.
Drain the potatoes and dry thoroughly on kitchen paper. Add to the oil in small batches and fry for about 2 or 3 minutes per batch, so that the potato slices become crisp and golden. Drain on paper towels and season with sea salt and black pepper. Keep warm as you cook the remaining chips and serve warm.
