Homemade Garlic Potato Chips
Ingredients
- 2 Medium or 1 Large Russet Potatoes, peeled
- ¼ Cup Olive Oil
- 4 Garlic Cloves, finely minced
- Vegetable Oil for frying
- 2 tsp Sea Salt
Method
With a mandoline, slice potato into rounds as thin as possible. Rinse rounds with cold water until water runs clear, and dry potatoes thoroughly on paper towels.
In a small saucepan heat olive oil and garlic on low heat until garlic aroma is released, about 5 minutes. Place garlic and oil in blender and puree.
Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan to 325˚F. Fry potatoes slices in several batches, stirring frequently with a slotted spoon, about 7 to 8 minutes. Place chips on paper towels to dry and sprinkle immediately with salt. Brush lightly with garlic oil. Serve immediately.
