Additive Free Sweet Potato Chips
Additive Free Sweet Potato Chips
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- Oil (for frying)
- Dash salt (more to taste)
- Peel the sweet potatoes; cut them in half lengthwise and then slice very thinly with a mandoline or the slicer attachment of a food processor. Place the slices in a medium bowl and cover with cold water; let them stand for about 1 hour.
Remove a handful of sweet potato slices from the water and drain well on paper towels. Heat the oil to about 180 C to 185 C in ​a deep fryer or about 1 inch deep in an electric skillet or deep skillet on the stovetop. Make sure the pan is no more than half full of oil.
- Place a double layer of paper towels across a large bowl or container.
- Fry the sweet potato slices in one layer batches for a minute or two or until golden brown.
- Lift chips out with a slotted metal spoon and let excess oil drip back into the pan. Transfer the slices to the paper towel-lined bowl and gently shake the bowl or grasp the paper towels by the ends and move back and forth so the chips will drain thoroughly.
- Remove them to a pan lined with paper towels.
- Repeat with the remaining chips.
- Let the chips cool completely and then sprinkle with salt before serving.
