Ingredients

  • 2 large cassava root
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel the cassava roots thoroughly and slice them very thinly using a mandolin slicer or a sharp knife to about 1/16 inch thickness for best results.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the cassava slices with olive oil, ensuring each slice is evenly coated.

Step 4

Add sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper to the bowl. Gently mix to coat the slices with the spices.

Step 5

Arrange the cassava slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure the slices do not overlap to ensure even baking.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then flip the slices and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the crisps are golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Remove from oven and allow the crisps to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a serving bowl.

Step 8

Serve the crisps immediately for maximum crispness, or store in an airtight container for up to two days.
