Notes

  • I usually slice down the chips directly in oil but if you are a beginner you can slice them separately and then add it to oil and fry.
  • See to that the chips do not stick to each other when frying in oil.
  • If you like you can sprinkle chilli powder after taking out from the oil when still hot.
  • Temperature when frying in oil should be correct to get perfect chips each time.
