Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium bulbs Kohlrabi
- 1 medium Rutabaga
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Peel the kohlrabi and rutabaga. Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to slice them into 1/8-inch thick slices.
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Make sure there is enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan to ensure crispiness.
While the oil heats, pat the kohlrabi and rutabaga slices dry with paper towels. This helps them to crisp up nicely when fried.
Working in batches, place a layer of kohlrabi and rutabaga slices in the hot oil. Fry each batch for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried slices from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Immediately sprinkle the hot slices with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining slices, adding more oil to the pan if necessary.
Serve the crispy low-carb potato slices hot as an appetizer or side dish.
