Homemade Rustic Chips

5 from 1 vote

Ingredients  

  • 3 large Russet potatoes, about 2lbs, scrubbed and washed
  • 8 cloves of garlic
  • 6 springs of rosemary, plus 2 or 3 for decoration
  • Sea salt
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions 

  • The night before, cook the potatoes in water seasoned with salt and 2 springs of rosemary, over high heat, for 20 minutes or until they are semi fork tender.
  • Drain the potatoes, let them cool and put them in the fridge overnight.
  • The next day, slice the potatoes (not too thin, about 0.2 inches), leaving the skin on. Put them in the freezer for 30 minutes before frying.
  • In a dutch oven, put the vegetable oil (enough to cover the chips), the garlic and 4 springs of rosemary and let it heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, fry the chips - making sure you're not crowding the pot - until they are golden.
  • Set the fried chips on a plate covered with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
  • Once your chips are all fried, take the garlic cloves and serve them with the chips.
  • You can dispose of the fried rosemary and use fresh ones to decorate your chips.
  • Sprinkle some sea salt over the chips and serve hot.
