Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin chips using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife. Aim for a consistent thickness of about 1/8 inch for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, turmeric powder, chili powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, and garlic powder. Mix well to create a marinade.
Add the potato slices to the bowl and gently toss until all slices are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Spread the potato slices in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap to promote even baking.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Halfway through, flip the chips to ensure they bake evenly.
Keep an eye on the chips during the last 5-10 minutes of baking to prevent burning. They should be golden and crisp.
Once baked, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool slightly on the tray. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Transfer the chips to a serving bowl. Add lemon juice, freshly chopped coriander leaves, and a sprinkle of black pepper. Toss gently to distribute the flavors.
Serve the masala chips immediately or store them in an airtight container once completely cooled. They can be enjoyed as a snack or a side to your favorite dish.
