Ingredients
- 4 whole large russet potatoes
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 0.25 cup water
- 2 tablespoons optional: fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Peel the russet potatoes and rinse them under cold water. Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to cut them into thin slices, approximately 1/8 inch thick.
Step 2
Place the potato slices into a bowl of cold water to soak for about 10 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and allows for a crispier texture.
Step 3
While the potato slices are soaking, in a large skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. The oil should reach around 350°F (175°C).
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. This will help the seasoning stick to the potato slices.
Step 5
Drain and pat dry the potato slices with a clean kitchen towel. Make sure to remove as much moisture as possible, as excess water will cause the oil to splatter.
Step 6
In a large bowl, combine the dried potato slices, cornstarch slurry, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to ensure each slice is evenly coated.
Step 7
Carefully add a single layer of potato slices to the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding, which can lead to uneven cooking.
Step 8
Fry the potato slices for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried potato slices from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 10
Repeat the frying process until all potato slices are cooked.
Step 11
If desired, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the fried potato slices just before serving for an added touch of color and flavor.
Step 12
Serve the Dairy-Free Crispy Fried Potato Slices immediately while they're still warm and enjoy!
