Potato Chips - Fried

1. Cut potatoes with a slicer.
2. Place them in cold water and place in refrigerator for one hour before frying.
3. Remove from water and place between towels to absorb as much moisture as possible.
4. Ready the frying oil. Peanut oil is best because it can cook at high temperatures. The oil should be as hot as the fryer allows, or to 400 degrees if a thermometer is used.
5. Place a layer of chips into the basket and lower into the oil, raising and lowering it until the excessive bubbling stops.
6. Stir chips while cooking and let brown delicately – about a minute or two.
7. Avoid frying very many at one time as this cools the oil quickly.
8. Drain in the basket and then on paper.
9. Sprinkle with salt immediately.
