Ingredients:

  • 2 large russet potatoes (about 800 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (5 grams)
  • ½ teaspoon paprika (2 grams), optional
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (2 grams), optional
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Wash and scrub potatoes thoroughly. Slice potatoes into thin rounds (about 1/16 inch or 1.5 mm) using a mandoline or sharp knife.
  2. Place the potato slices into a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let soak for 30 minutes.
  3. Drain the potato slices in a colander and rinse under cold water. Pat dry thoroughly using paper towels.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the dried potato slices with olive oil, sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  5. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  6. Place a single layer of potato slices in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  7. Remove chips and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
