Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the potatoes. Slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick, using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer for even thickness.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them soak for 10 minutes to remove excess starch, which will help them crisp up.
Drain the potatoes and dry them thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel to ensure they bake crispy.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, red chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, garam masala, salt, and pepper.
Pour the spice mixture over the potato slices and toss well to ensure all slices are evenly coated with the spices and oil.
Spread the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, flip the slices and continue baking for another 15 minutes or until they are golden and crispy.
Remove the tray from the oven and immediately drizzle the chips with lemon juice for a touch of tanginess.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Serve the masala chips warm as a snack or a side dish, and enjoy the crispy, spicy flavors.
