Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 1 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) or 180°C (350°F) for fan ovens.
Step 2
Wash and peel the potatoes (leave the skin on if you prefer rustic-style chips). Slice them into thin strips, roughly 1 cm thick.
Step 3
Soak the potato strips in a bowl of cold water for 10-15 minutes to remove excess starch. This step helps achieve crispier chips.
Step 4
Drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Moisture will prevent them from crisping in the oven.
Step 5
Place the dry potato strips into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the potato strips out evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are in a single layer and not overlapping.
Step 7
Place the tray into the preheated oven and bake the chips for 30-35 minutes. Turn the chips over halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Step 8
Once the chips are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven. If desired, sprinkle with extra salt or seasonings to taste.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat homemade oven chips either as a snack or a side dish.
