SERVES

two

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 desiree potatoes
  • Vegetable oil, for deep frying

METHOD

  • Preheat a deep fat fryer (or you can use a saucepan filled a third full with oil), to 170C. Have some kitchen paper handy.
  • Peel the potatoes and, using a mandolin if you have one, or a sharp knife, slice them thinly to make wafer-thin discs. If you have a crinkle-cutting blade, use that to make waffle crisps.
  • Wash the slices thoroughly and dry carefully on kitchen paper.
  • Deep-fry the potato slices for a couple of minutes or until golden brown, then use a slotted spoon to remove the chips and leave them on a fresh piece of kitchen paper to drain off the excess oil. It’s best not to overload the oil, and give them time to crisp up.
  • Season generously with salt and pepper and serve while still hot.
