Main Ingredients

2 large Russet/Idaho potatoes Known for their creamy texture and natural flavor, ideal for chip-making.
1-2 tablespoons olive oil Enhances flavor and helps achieve a golden brown.
to taste salt and pepper Essential for elevating the taste.

Preparation

Begin by cutting the potatoes into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick. If you have a mandoline slicer, use it for uniform thickness.
Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl filled with cold water and gently rinse to remove excess starch.
Spread the rinsed potato slices onto paper towels or clean kitchen towels and pat them dry to remove moisture.
Transfer the dried slices into a large bowl and drizzle the olive oil over them. Season with salt and pepper, then toss until evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange the potato slices in an even layer in the air fryer basket without overcrowding.

Cooking

Cook for about 20 minutes, tossing the chips every 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chips as they become crispy and place them onto a serving plate.

Serving

Experiment with seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or parmesan for extra flavor. Try using sweet potatoes for a different variation.
