Instructions
1
Prepare potatoes
Peel and slice the potatoes very thinly using a mandoline or knife.
5 min
Use a mandoline for uniform thin slices
2
Remove moisture
Pat dry each slice thoroughly to remove moisture.
2 min
Moisture prevents proper crisping
3
Apply egg wash
Brush one side of each slice with egg wash.
3 min
Use a pastry brush for even application
4
Dust with cornstarch
Dust the other side lightly with cornstarch.
2 min
Light dusting is enough - too much will make them heavy
5
Form pairs
Stack two slices together, egg side to starch side, pressing gently.
3 min
Press gently to bond without breaking the slices
6
Cut into shapes
Cut into small squares or your preferred shape.
3 min
Small squares work best for uniform cooking
7
Deep fry
Heat oil to 160°C and deep fry the potato squares for about 3 minutes, until golden and puffed.

8
Season while hot
