Instructions

Peel the potatoes. Using a mandoline, slice the potatoes. Soak the potatoes in cold water.
Heat up a neutral oil in a deep sauté pan. Dry the potato slices completely using a paper towel.
Fry the potato slices in a single layer about 3-4 minutes until they start to become slightly golden brown. Remove the chips with a slotted spoon to a bowl lined with paper towels or a cooling rack to drain the excess oil.
Put potato chips in a bowl and toss in a generous amount of kosher salt. Serve immediately or save for later.
