Cut potatoes into thin slices, using whatever kitchen tools suit your fancy. Since I’m not trained in the art of knives and prefer to keep all my fingers, I use my safety slicer.

  After slicing, cover them in water and let sit for 30 minutes

Lay out paper towels and dry off the potatoes. Pre-heat oil to 375ᴼ

Carefully place dried potatoes in oil and fry for about 5 minutes, move them around a bit half way through at the 3 minute mark.

When finished I place on a cooling rack with paper towels underneath. Sprinkle with some salt, cayenne pepper, maybe some garlic powder, whatever you like. If you’re feeling naughty top with some chives, shredded cheese, plus bacon then dip in sour cream, Yum!
