Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Thoroughly wash and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt. Optionally, peel the potatoes if you prefer skinless chips.
Using a sharp knife or mandoline, slice the potatoes thinly (about 1/8-inch thick) for optimal crispiness.
Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl of cold water and let soak for at least 10 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and ensures crispier chips.
Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for about 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove any excess water.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, salt, paprika, and black pepper until well-coated.
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking and crispiness. Cook in batches if necessary.
Air fry the chips for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy, shaking the basket halfway through cooking for even results.
Once cooked, remove the chips from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly. This will help them crisp up further.
Enjoy your homemade sugar-free crispy air fried chips as a snack or side dish!
