Ingredients
- 2 medium bulbs Kohlrabi
- 1 medium Rutabaga
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Peel the kohlrabi and rutabaga. Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to slice them into 1/8-inch thick slices.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Make sure there is enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan to ensure crispiness.
Step 3
While the oil heats, pat the kohlrabi and rutabaga slices dry with paper towels. This helps them to crisp up nicely when fried.
Step 4
Working in batches, place a layer of kohlrabi and rutabaga slices in the hot oil. Fry each batch for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Remove the fried slices from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 6
Immediately sprinkle the hot slices with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Step 7
Repeat the frying process with the remaining slices, adding more oil to the pan if necessary.
Step 8
Serve the crispy low-carb potato slices hot as an appetizer or side dish.
